Understanding Your Coverage for Weight Loss Medications

  • Health Information
Jul. 17, 2024

The recent availability of new brand-name weight loss drugs in Canada has meant that we frequently hear about the effectiveness of these treatments, particularly on social media. Your ASEBP benefit plan covers these special authorization drugs, but there are some considerations, including how to apply for coverage and the process for managing refills, that you should know before you speak with your health care provider. If you have additional questions about your coverage, please get in touch with a benefit specialist.
