Does DC Medicaid pay for a GLP-1?
Weight-loss drugs sit outside the DC Medicaid preferred drug list, so neither Wegovy nor Zepbound is covered for weight loss. For type 2 diabetes, Ozempic and Trulicity are preferred and every other GLP-1 needs prior authorization. 24 telehealth programs serve residents of the District of Columbia.
DC Medicaid's health plans are AmeriHealth Caritas DC, Wellpoint DC and MedStar Family Choice DC.
The DC Medicaid GLP-1 page has the full rules, the plans and the appeal steps.
