Novo Nordisk urges Commission to consult weight‑management experts before plan changes
Summary
Joe Miller of Novo Nordisk asked the Commission to meet with weight‑management experts or bring experts to speak on obesity before the Commission makes plan‑design decisions related to obesity and related medications.
During "Other Business," Joe Miller of Novo Nordisk told commissioners he sees downstream effects of obesity and urged the Commission to consult weight‑management experts or invite subject‑matter experts from Novo Nordisk or the state to speak before making plan‑design changes that touch weight management.
Labor Member Jonathan French noted staff are working to fill Commission vacancies so that new members have representation; no formal action or vote on the Miller request was recorded at the Feb. 19 meeting.
