Do GLP-1 medications pay for themselves by reducing other health care spending?

New NBER WP (claims data + stacked DID): GLP-1 initiation does not reduce non-GLP health spending. Non-GLP spending is higher at 1 year and 5 years. @KosaliSimon @sacksdaniel @STingCai

[Jonathan Zhang @jzhangecon]

🚨Do GLP-1s “pay for themselves”? We study real-world impacts at scale. An estimated 1 in 8 Americans have tried GLP-1s. But beyond clinical trials, we know surprisingly little about their real-world effects.
