The sarcopenic obesity mechanism creates a pathway where GLP-1s may INCREASE healthcare costs in elderly populations: muscle loss during treatment + high discontinuation (64.8% at 1 year) + preferential fat regain = sarcopenic obesity → increased fall risk, fractures, disability, and long-term care needs. This directly challenges the Medicare cost-savings thesis by creating NEW healthcare costs (disability, falls, fractures) that may offset cardiovascular and metabolic savings.

WHO issued conditional recommendations (not full endorsements) for GLP-1s in obesity treatment, explicitly acknowledging 'limited long-term evidence.' The conditional framing signals institutional uncertainty about durability of outcomes and cost-effectiveness at population scale. WHO requires countries to 'consider local cost-effectiveness, budget impact, and ethical implications' before adoption, suggesting the chronic use economics remain unproven for resource-constrained health systems.

Danish cohort achieved same weight loss outcomes (16.7% at 64 weeks) using HALF the typical semaglutide dose when paired with digital behavioral support, matching clinical trial results at 50% drug cost. If this half-dose protocol proves generalizable, it could fundamentally alter the inflationary cost trajectory by reducing per-patient drug spending while maintaining efficacy.

The discontinuation problem is worse than just lost metabolic benefits - it creates a body composition trap. Patients who discontinue lose 15-40% of weight as lean mass during treatment, then regain weight preferentially as fat without muscle recovery. This means the most common outcome (discontinuation) leaves patients with WORSE body composition than baseline: same or higher fat, less muscle, higher disability risk. Weight cycling on GLP-1s is not neutral - it's actively harmful.

Digital behavioral support may partially solve the persistence problem: UK study showed 11.53% weight loss with engagement vs 8% without at 5 months, suggesting the adherence paradox has a behavioral solution component. However, high withdrawal rates in non-engaged groups suggest this requires active participation, not passive app access.
