Show Notes
Boston Mayor Michelle Wu implements cost-saving measures for city employees healthcare, limiting coverage for GLP-1 weight loss drugs. The move, approved by unions, will save nearly eleven million dollars and prevent staff layoffs amid budget cuts. Health care premiums were set to increase by twenty-three percent, but the new policy will cap spending on these drugs, expected to rise from thirty-two million to over forty-seven million next year.
