Has anyone dispensed Rybelsus yet? it's a new semaglutide tablet, only oral GLP-1 agonist on the market apparently and possibly to replace ozempic. Ozempic reimburses like crap. Pharmacy loses hundreds of dollars almost every time. Anyone know how Rybelsus is reimbursing?

Have had like 2 Rxs for rybelsus so far...PAs, no info on reimbursement currently. God damn does this one ever take up shelve space!

Interestingly, just got one in right after I posted this. We lost $15 on optum claim...what an ahole. Not as bad i guess compared to Victoza. We were losing $150 on 90 day supply.... what kind of douchebaggary is this?

I'll admit, I've been dreading this one coming out....the skepticism/hang-ups about the kinetics and technology needed ($$$) around overcoming GI degradation & popularity of avoiding parenteral admin (sigh and added promises of weight loss) is going to be nothing but PAs and a lot of potential compromised efficacy. Predicting its fate will be similar to both inhaled insulin attempts (too niche of a product, too much paperwork, already existing superior products, ultimately won't be prescribed regularly enough, etc.)
