Cigna 's Evernorth unit said a new coverage deal with Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk will bring lower copays for insured patients.

The company hopes the new discount, which caps monthly out-of-pocket costs at $ 200 for Wegovy and Zepbound , will convince more employers to offer coverage of the drugs.

The new deal will also include a simplified pre-authorization process for the drugs, and patients will be able to access the drugs for the same price.
