No matter how much we reduce obesity health care costs will only go up


Correct. We can only do things to reduce the expense trend but it will never be negative. Covid was one of the only times there was negative trend

I know the cost is higher on the front end because we're now paying for millions of people to start GLP-1s, but wouldn't the health benefits mean we're paying less for their complications further down the line? If you're paying for them to take shots but it means you aren't paying for repeated hospitalizations and medication due to poor health, that's an overall win.


Yep you are correct. It’s a little bit difficult to do that kind of medical economic analysis because you dont know if hospitalizations and er visits are going down because of the drug or something else but it is definitely reducing costs in other places :cheers:

It will be a clear substantial cost benefit once we move all GLP1s to generic instead of brand.

The big beautiful bill has been far more disruptive to the healthcare industry than GLP1. That’s the main reason why all healthcare companies are reporting poor Q2 results. Less people with insurance = lower volume
