Medstar CVS prescription plan dropping Zepbound - Anonymous employee MedStar Health Employee Review

If you need to use your health insurance meaning you have a medical emergency, have medical issues or need expensive prescriptions, MedStar health plans are not for you. MedStar keeps increasing the deductible and co-pays on their Carefirst PPO plan. In addition, CVS Caremark is the only prescription coverage option and they are a nightmare to deal with. You must go to a CVS pharmacy or a MedStar pharmacy for prescriptions. Only for 2025, will they allow you to get prescriptions at Walgreens. In addition, I received a letter in the mail from CVS Caremark that they were dropping Zepbound and now I will have to pay $500/month if I want to continue with my prescription. They said other employer plans still cover Zepbound but not the MedStar Health CVS Caremark plan. I wish I would have just purchased my insurance through the marketplace even those plans cover my prescription.
