Employee Interest in Employer GLP-1 Coverage Survey

Thanks for taking a few minutes on this one. We're exploring interest in adding coverage for GLP-1 medications (like Ozempic, Wegovy, or Mounjaro) to our health benefits, and want your honest take. Takes about 8 minutes, and your answers are confidential.

Have you heard of GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound?

• Yes, I'm very familiar with them
• I've heard of them but don't know much
• No, this is new to me

Have you personally used a GLP-1 medication for weight management or diabetes?

• Currently taking one
• Have taken one in the past
• Never taken one, but interested
• Never taken one, and not interested

Does your current health insurance (through this employer or elsewhere) cover GLP-1 medications for weight management?

• Yes, fully covered
• Yes, partially covered (e.g., prior authorization or step therapy required)
• No, not covered
• I don't know

If your employer added coverage for GLP-1 medications specifically for weight management, how interested would you be in using that benefit?

How much do you agree with each of the following statements?

If your employer had 100 points to invest across new or improved benefits, how would you split them across these options?

• GLP-1 medication coverage
• Mental health / therapy coverage
• Fertility and family planning benefits
• Enhanced dental or vision coverage
• Gym or wellness reimbursement

Now a few quick questions about cost. Think about a monthly out-of-pocket amount (copay) for a GLP-1 medication benefit.

• At what monthly out-of-pocket cost would this coverage seem so cheap that you'd question its quality or limits?
• At what monthly out-of-pocket cost would this coverage feel like a great deal?
• At what monthly out-of-pocket cost would this coverage start to feel expensive, though you might still consider it?
• At what monthly out-of-pocket cost would this coverage be too expensive for you to ever consider it?

What would stop you from using a GLP-1 medication benefit if your employer offered one? Select all that apply.

• Cost of copay or deductible
• Concerns about side effects
• Needle or injection discomfort
• Stigma or privacy concerns
• Uncertainty about long-term effectiveness
• Prior authorization or paperwork hassle
• Nothing would stop me

How much would better GLP-1 medication coverage influence your choice between two otherwise similar job offers?

Explore the personal story behind this employee's interest level: is it driven by their own health goals, a family member's experience, cost concerns, or skepticism about the medications? If they flagged cost as a barrier, probe what specific monthly out-of-pocket amount would change their mind. If they said they're 'not interested,' distinguish between privacy or stigma concerns versus genuine disinterest in the medication itself, and ask what would need to be true for them to reconsider.
