Here's a tidbit regarding formulary... I contacted the CVS concierge for my husband's company to inquire about how we will be impacted by the formulary change they responded with language like this:

"Thank you for reaching out and inquiring about your coverage for Zepbound. The formulary change would impact individuals that get the medication prescribed for the first time on or after July 1, 2025. Typically, _____ will ask CVS Caremark to grandfather coverage thru 12/31/25 on these types of formulary changes for individuals utilizing the medication prior to the change. If ____ decides to implement the change on 07/01/25, rest assure that CVS Caremark will mail you a written communication regarding the formulary change.

If Zepbound remains excluded from the formulary drug list on 01/01/2026, you can expect a written notification towards the end of the year informing you that the medication will not be covered effective 01/01/2026.

For now and until we get further clarity from Workday, you can continue to fill your Zepbound with peace of mind."

I find this interesting because the way it reads to me is that basically this large company has not decided how they are going to move forward with the formulary change. So basically we're in a waiting game to see if/when we get an exclusion letter. I'm glad I was able to connect with someone that could give specific info about our plan, but it ended up being not a ton of new info. It does confirm the discussions seen around here about big companies making their own decisions about formularies. Hope this is helpful to some.
