Understanding the New GLP-1 Obesity Prescribing Changes: Context, Contract and Pathways

About this event

This webinar is the first in a two-part series designed to support primary care teams with the forthcoming changes to GLP-1 prescribing for obesity. It will focus on the wider context, contractual requirements, and obesity management pathways. A second webinar, taking place the following week, will provide detailed practical guidance on initiating and monitoring GLP-1 therapy, including patient counselling, prescribing considerations, and administration techniques. We encourage attendees to register for both sessions to gain a comprehensive understanding of the changes and their implementation in practice.
