How Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield May Cover Weight Loss Treatment in Delaware

Weight loss treatment coverage varies significantly by plan. While MHPAEA governs mental health parity, weight loss and obesity treatment falls under medical benefits, which may differ in structure. Delaware's mental health parity law (Del. Code Ann. tit. 18, § 3343) addresses mental health and substance use disorder coverage and does not directly govern weight loss benefits.

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield offers PPO, HMO, and EPO plans in Delaware with varying benefit structures:

• GLP-1 medications (such as Wegovy, Saxenda, Zepbound) may be covered by some Anthem plans, often subject to prior authorization and BMI-based criteria.
• Prior authorization is commonly required for GLP-1 weight loss medications. Clinical criteria typically include a BMI of 30 or greater, or BMI of 27 or greater with a qualifying comorbidity.
• Deductibles and copays for weight loss visits and medications vary by plan tier.
• GLP-1 medications are non-scheduled; Delaware EPCS requirements do not apply to these drugs.
