The insurance company is taking a conservative stance on the Trump administration's plan to cover weight-loss drugs under the American health insurance program.

Health insurance companies are questioning the Trump administration's plan to include weight loss drugs in federal health insurance, and are skeptical if enough insurance companies will join to ensure the plan can be launched as expected. CVS Health company has refused to participate in the weight loss drug coverage plan, while UnitedHealth Group has expressed doubts about the effort, citing "significant challenges and unresolved issues" in the plan structure. The government's plan will require insurance companies to cover weight loss drugs in the federal health insurance program, which could cost health insurance companies billions of dollars in the first year and potentially force them to raise premiums for the federal health insurance prescription drug plan.
