  1. Rank 1

    Medicare GLP-1 Bridge

    until Dec 31, 2027
    $50/mo
    • All Foundayo formulations covered
    • Runs OUTSIDE the Part D plan (central processor: Humana, BIN 028918 / PCN MEDDGLP1BR). Not available if your Part D plan already covers a GLP-1 for you, or if you have T2D, moderate-to-severe OSA, or noncirrhotic MASH (those route through standard Part D). Filling any GLP-1 through your Part D plan after you are approved ends your Bridge eligibility for good — the next Bridge refill is rejected at the counter — and so does moving to a Part D plan type the Bridge does not cover. A prescriber must attest on the prior authorization that you met a BMI category: BMI >= 35; or >= 30 with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, uncontrolled hypertension, or chronic kidney disease stage 3a or above; or >= 27 with pre-diabetes, prior myocardial infarction, prior stroke, or symptomatic peripheral artery disease. That BMI is the one you had when you STARTED GLP-1 therapy, not the one you have now — losing weight since does not disqualify you. The copay does not count toward the Part D deductible or your out-of-pocket maximum, and no coupons apply. There is no low-income subsidy — LIS beneficiaries pay it in full.

  2. Rank 2

    LillyDirect self-pay

    until Dec 31, 2026
    $149/mo
    • Temporarily reduced from the regular price. Lilly publishes the end date but not a start date, so this row begins on the day the reduction was first read on Lilly's page, not the day it began
    • Lilly's direct channel. Vial and KwikPen at identical self-pay prices at every tier. Telehealth not included.

  3. Rank 3

    Discount card at retail (GoodRx and similar)

    verify locally
    $149/mo
    • Starting-at price announced when GoodRx opened the channel; GoodRx publishes no per-dose ladder above it
    • Dose- and pharmacy-dependent. Verify at your ZIP before relying on it.
