GLP-1 Medications

While PEHP covers GLP-1 medications for diabetes treatment, coverage doesn’t extend to weight loss under health benefits, as that would cause premiums to rise significantly. However, through our PEHPplus Discount Program, members can access quality medications through our partnership with GLP1 MedRX and OrderlyMeds.
