HHS proposed a rule Tuesday that, if enacted, would expand access to anti-obesity medications like Wegovy, Ozempic, and Mounjaro to millions of Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. The regulation would not be finalized before Donald Trump takes office and could be blocked by the next HHS Secretary; nominee Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a critic of such drugs.
