Panel to discuss impact of popular weight-loss drugs on the self-funded employer market
Natchitoches, Louisiana--(Newsfile Corp. - April 25, 2024) - LeAnn Boyd, Liviniti CEO, will join national healthcare leaders in a panel discussion at the HPI Innovations Self-Funding Conference on Tuesday, April 30 in Boston. Hugh Gallagher, Senior Vice President, Leaf Health, will moderate the GLP-1 panel discussion titled: How a Side Effect Turned into a Selling Point for Pharma.
Known for breakthrough innovations in the pharmacy benefit management space, Liviniti was the first PBM to announce a collaborative weight-loss program with Noom for Work. This unique program gives self-insured employers flexible options to support employees - whether or not they extend benefit coverage for GLP-1s, an exciting, but costly, class of medications.
GLP-1s, which include Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound and others, are revolutionizing the fight against obesity, all while challenging pharmacy benefit plans to offer sustainable weight-loss solutions for members. LeAnn will add her insights to the discussion as the panel reviews the origination of GLP-1s, their impact on overall health and weight loss, and their impact on the self-funded employer market.
Also serving on the panel are Lisa Gish, Director of Product and Market Strategy, TrueScripts, and Rachel Strauss, Vice President of Business Development, EHIM. HPI is a national third-party administrator that partners with health plan brokers and employers to provide self-funding strategies and customized plans tailored to each client's needs and population.
