Mississippi has the highest adult obesity rate in the nation at 41.4%. The state faces compounded challenges: limited healthcare infrastructure, no Medicaid expansion, and high poverty rates that make out-of-pocket medication costs prohibitive for many. UMMC in Jackson has the only academic weight management program in the state. Telehealth GLP-1 programs with competitive pricing are especially impactful here, bringing access to the Delta and other underserved regions.

Mississippi Medicaid covers select GLP-1s for obesity with prior authorization, added by state plan amendment effective July 2023. Wegovy and Saxenda are preferred for ages 12 and up, and as of July 2026 Zepbound and Foundayo are included for adults in an automated review rule that can approve up to 12 months at a time. Adults generally need a BMI of 30 or higher, or 27 to 29 with a weight-related condition such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, sleep apnea or fatty liver disease. Continued coverage requires losing at least 5% of body weight. Contrave, Qsymia and phentermine are not covered. Separately, Mississippi has not expanded Medicaid under the ACA, so fewer low-income adults qualify for the program at all.
