TLDR:
CVS dropped Zepbound today, but you do not have to accept the switch. You have the legal right to appeal, and Claimable makes it easy and winnable. Their tool builds a strong, personalized case that wins 80 out of 100 times. If Zepbound is working for you and you’re losing access, this could be your best shot at keeping it. Use code OTP10 to save 10 percent when you start your appeal.
Today, July 1, CVS Caremark will no longer cover Zepbound on its standard formularies. That means hundreds of thousands of people are losing coverage, as I type this. If you’re on Zepbound and doing well, that should piss you off. If you’re on a different GLP-1 and doing well, that should piss you off. If you’re just a person who cares about people’s health, that should piss you off. I know you are, and I am too.
Why? Because it’s not a medical decision. It’s a business decision.
CVS made a deal with Novo Nordisk, and now they’re telling patients: you get Wegovy, or you pay out of pocket. No mention of what worked for you. No recognition that Zepbound and Wegovy aren’t the same drug. No concern for outcomes.
But here’s the part they leave out: You have a right to appeal. You can win. This tool makes it easy, and has an 80% success rate.
I want to introduce you to Claimable, and to the doctor behind it, Warris Bokhari. His team has quietly built something special. They have already helped thousands of people with chronic conditions get their medications approved when insurance said no. And now they are stepping up for the obesity community.
This tool was truly built for this moment. For the people being forced off Zepbound. For those watching their coverage disappear. For anyone who has been told, “Sorry, you are out of options.”
This is the tool we have been looking for. This is what I have been wanting to bring to you.
Claimable gives you a simple and powerful way to fight back. You answer a few questions. You upload your documents. They take it from there. They generate appeals backed by law, medical evidence, and real policy language that most providers never include. It works. And it is working right now.
This is not just a simple promo. This is not a favor. I truly believe this platform can help thousands of people stay on the medication that is helping them. It gives people a chance to push back when insurance says no.
If you feel angry, if you feel afraid, if you feel like you are running out of time or options, I want you to know this tool exists. And I believe in it.
The information below is from Claimable. They walk you through what is happening and how to fight to WIN:
What is happening: CVS is forcing a switch
If you got a letter from CVS Caremark saying your Zepbound coverage is ending, it means you are being forced off the medication that has been working for you. Not because it is unsafe. Not because it stopped helping. Just because CVS made a rebate deal with Novo Nordisk and Wegovy is now cheaper for them.
This is called a formulary change. And it is not about care. It is about contracts.
What you can do: appeal and win
Most people do not realize this, but you can fight back. You have the legal right to request a formulary exception. And if Zepbound is working for you, your chances of winning are strong.
But let us be honest. Doing this on your own is a full-time job. Here is what you would normally need to handle by yourself:
• Ask your doctor to file a new prior authorization, even though it will almost certainly be denied
• Gather the denial letter, your provider’s submission, and a letter of medical necessity
• Write an appeal explaining why Zepbound is medically necessary for you
• Support it with clinical studies, side effect history, weight and dose tracking, and any other diagnoses like sleep apnea
• Figure out where to send it and how, whether that is by mail, fax, or alerting your state insurance department
That is a lot to take on while you are already worried about losing access to treatment.
This is where Claimable comes in, and they make it super simple. You answer a few questions and upload your documents. They build a complete, medically backed, legally grounded appeal that is ready to send. And their success rate is strong. Out of 100 appeals, Claimable wins 80.
Their Zepbound appeal tool does the following:
• Shows you exactly what information to collect
• Writes a personalized appeal letter based on your specific case
• Adds legal arguments, coverage policy details, and supporting research that doctors often leave out
• Identifies the right decision makers and sends your appeal to them directly
• Handles the submission process without needing a printer or fax machine
You still have to take action. But you do not have to do it alone. Claimable takes the guesswork and the grind out of it.
If CVS is telling you to switch, you have the right to push back. You have the right to stay on what works. And Claimable gives you the best chance to win that fight.

Wonderful access to help! Thanks again, Dave!! I am one of the fortunate ones whose group ins decided its members were worth the extra they will have to pick up because they’re allowing us access to remain on Zepbound with the same copay and benefits. I wish every employer were able to do this for their employees. Caremark and every other PBM needs to be taken down. This is unacceptable, unethical behavior from a health insurance conglomerate.
This is great! We lost coverage a long time ago with CVS Caremark but luckily I stocked up when we did have coverage, that supply is running out so I will be looking into this. Thank you Dave!
