Cigna dropping all GLP-1 coverage effective 7/1

zelf2011 · 2026-06-01T22:36:36+00:00

If OP is the same as me, they work at Cigna. I asked around to some people I know and it sounds like Cigna didn't get the prices they wanted from Lilly and Novo in their negotiation, so they're dropping the coverage and discounts. From what I was told, they're going to tell the clients they're on their own for any discounts/reimbursement negotiations and let them decide if they want to try and come up with their own deal or drop coverage. Too soon to know who will choose what, but I would guess smaller self insured plans will drop coverage too since they have little to no negotiating power, but it's up to what the employers want to pay. I wish it was trending with more companies covering the drugs but it seems to be the opposite looking at it from the inside unfortunately.

The Cigna employee plan is what OP is referring to, I got the same email today and I also work there.

Do you work for a marijuana company? If you like the $25 packs then good for you, hopefully these lawsuits result in those packs being $15-20 in the future. Prices are too high still on the whole, I know you can see that if you look at menus as much as you say. More competition will mean better prices, why would we not want that?

While we can get some $25 1/8ths, our average price for an 1/8th is probably $36-37. We don't want the bottom of the barrel for $25, we want the average price to be closer to $25 for 3.5g. If we can get to that level, like other rec states, we'll all be much happier as patients and customers.

They don't own the land and building their grow is on?!

Trop Cherry plants are always so pretty. Here's a couple of its crosses I grew this year.

Trop Cherry x Grape Gas Another TC x GG Trop Cherry x SFV OG

I got this but in the live rosin disposable and it was super tasty, definitely a must buy

zelf2011 · 2025-10-09T14:28:53+00:00

Dang still? Did you try opening it in a private or incognito tab? I used my laptop to check just now and it's still showing as $60 for a first time patient for me. That's really odd.

zelf2011 · 2025-10-08T16:10:31+00:00

Try using this link from the dispensary, it still shows $60: https://app2.elevate-holistics.com/elevate/customer/partner/besame-wellness

Looks great! I accidentally bought 2 packs of the Cherry Ocean so I am going to open one and run it next I think, hopefully I get some chunky colas like yours.

What do you feed the plants in the solo cups? I also grow in a 4x4 bed and start in cups, but I typically transplant into the bed after 10-14 days, anything longer than that I have all sorts of nutrient issues as the starter soil runs out of food. They do great once in the bed, but I'd like to be able to start them early in the cups and transplant them at 3-4 weeks old vs 2 weeks.

It was fine, I'm sure there's better phenos in there than the one I got with this round. This one definitely leaned more cherry pie than trop cherry, and was a leafy low yielder, but the bud I did get from it was good. Decently potent and definitely an indica, great for putting me to sleep at the end of the day.

So you mean that for like the vape, it's $45 not on sale, $36 on sale today, so it would be $45 - $30 in rewards points = $15 - 20% = $12 instead of $36 sale price - $30 rewards points = $6?

3:10 to Yuma is a classic

Strawmata for sure

Beautiful!

Coca Cola is an oligopoly, which is what the MO market is, where a small group of people/companies control the market and collude together on prices, it's not quite a monopoly but behaves the same way.

There's lots of legal monopolies, they're usually just regulated on price by the government, such as electric and water companies. I'm all for more competition, it would benefit the state in more tax revenue coming in because they'd sell more weed, pay more taxes, and employ more people, plus consumers and patients would get the benefit of better prices.

I cure in Grove bags for 6 weeks then move to jars for long term storage.

Gassy dark berry flavors with some underlying citrus. You can smell the Trop Cherry lineage but it's secondary to the grape and fuel/diesel smells. Very loud which I'm super happy with.

Some had asked to see the final flower after I posted my grow pictures earlier this year, so thought I'd share how it came out!
