Quantified lifetime savings per subject: $14,431 from avoided T2D, $2,074 from avoided CKD, $1,512 from avoided CV events. Diabetes prevention is the dominant economic driver, not cardiovascular protection, suggesting targeting should prioritize metabolic risk over CV risk.

Aon's 192K patient analysis found adherent GLP-1 users (80%+) had 47% fewer MACE hospitalizations for women and 26% for men, with the sex differential suggesting larger cardiovascular benefits for women. This adds to the multi-organ protection thesis by quantifying sex-specific effects and demonstrating that adherence is the binding variable—benefits scale dramatically with consistent use.

Weight regain data shows that even among patients who complete treatment, GLP-1 alone produces 8.7 kg regain (vs 7.6 kg placebo) while GLP-1 + exercise produces only 3.5 kg regain. This means low persistence may be economically rational for patients if the medication alone doesn't create lasting value—the 15% two-year persistence rate may reflect patients discovering that medication without lifestyle change produces temporary results.

Aon data shows benefits scale dramatically with adherence: for diabetes indication, medical cost growth is 6 points lower at 30 months but 9 points lower with 80%+ adherence. For weight loss indication, cost growth is 3 points lower at 18 months but 7 points lower with consistent use. This confirms that low persistence rates directly undermine the economic case, as the cost savings require sustained use.

The Trump Administration deal establishes a $50/month out-of-pocket maximum for Medicare beneficiaries, explicitly targeting affordability as a persistence barrier. The $245/month Medicare price (down from ~$1,350) combined with the OOP cap is designed to address the affordability-driven discontinuation pattern observed in lower-income populations.

Aon's commercial claims data (employer-sponsored insurance) shows strong adherence effects but comes from a population with better coverage than the general market. The 80%+ adherent cohort shows the strongest effects across all outcomes, suggesting that populations with coverage barriers would see substantially worse real-world outcomes, reinforcing the affordability-persistence link.

## Key Facts
|
||||
- Aon analyzed commercial health claims data from 192,000+ GLP-1 users in multi-year study released January 13, 2026
|
||||
- First 12 months on Wegovy/Zepbound: medical costs rise 23% vs. 10% for non-users
|
||||
- After 12 months: medical costs grow 2% vs. 6% for non-users
|
||||
- Female GLP-1 users: ~50% lower ovarian cancer incidence, 14% lower breast cancer incidence
|
||||
- Adherent users (80%+): 47% MACE reduction for women, 26% for men
|
||||
- GLP-1 users also showed lower rates of osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, alcohol/drug abuse hospitalizations
