No commissions. 📞 (539) 205-2147 🌐 https://askchapter.org/insider Starting July 1, 2026, Medicare is opening a brand-new door called the Medicare GLP-1 Bridge — and for the first time, some people on Medicare can get certain weight-loss medications for about $50 a month. If you're on Social Security and Medicare, here's exactly what this program is, who qualifies, which drugs are covered, and the one step you need to take now. No panic. No politics. Just clarity. In this video, I break down the $50 copay, the fine print most people miss, the BMI and health rules that decide if you qualify, and why this isn't automatic — so you don't leave this benefit on the table before the window closes after 2027. ✅ QUICK FACTS - Runs July 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027 (temporary) - Flat $50 copay per 30-day supply - Covered: Wegovy (injection or tablet), Zepbound (KwikPen only), Foundayo — Ozempic is NOT included - You must be enrolled in a Medicare Part D plan or a Medicare Advantage plan with drug coverage - It's for weight loss only — diabetes or sleep apnea prescriptions go through your regular Part D plan - It is NOT automatic — your doctor submits a prior authorization (not before July 1) 🟢 JOIN THE COMMUNITY Benefits Insider Circle (Skool): https://skool.com/benefits-insider Free weekday benefits updates — the Daily 3 newsletter: [link] 📚 SOURCE Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Medicare GLP-1 Bridge: https://www.cms.gov/medicare/coverage/prescription-drug-coverage/medicare-glp-1-bridge ⚠️ DISCLAIMER This video is for general information and education only.

Chapter Advisory, LLC represents Medicare Advantage HMO, PPO, and PFFS organizations and stand alone prescription drug plans that have a Medicare contract. Enrollment depends on the plan’s contract renewal. While we have a database of every Medicare plan nationwide and can help you to search among all plans, we have contracts with many but not all plans. As a result, we do not offer every plan available in your area. Currently we represent 50 organizations which offer 18,160 products nationwide. We search and recommend all plans, even those we don’t directly offer. You can contact a licensed Chapter agent to find out the number of products available in your specific area. Please contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-Medicare, or your local State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) to get information on all of your options.
