Province record

Weight-loss care in Quebec

Public-plan records, documented services and the questions the available sources cannot settle.

What this page answers

  • Semaglutide for diabetes on the public plan: Médicament d'exception (diabetes) for Ozempic, Rybelsus and the four generic DINs.
  • Weight-management products on the public plan: Wegovy, Saxenda, Zepbound and Sevmia returned no result in the RAMQ covered-drug search on 2026-09-17.
  • Services documented as offered in Quebec: 1 of 7 checked, on the companies' own pages.
  • Public care route: not researched for this record.
Evidence depth: moderateDepth describes the research scope, not coverage and not clinical quality.

Public coverage record

Evidence depth: moderate Moderate: generic listings and diabetes criteria were read from opened documents; some fields (for example interchangeability) are unknown.

A listing is not a decision about an individual claim. Criteria, special authorization and the plan's own process still apply.

Public care route

not researched; French clinical service availability not verified

Quebec. The RAMQ terms above are French, with English glosses marked as translations in the research. A French version of this site does not exist yet and will not until a review process for French content exists. The research also flagged Law 25 and Charter of the French language questions for a Quebec audience.

What this page cannot say yet

Next research step recorded for this jurisdiction: R3-1 Part 1. Recheck assumption: every 30 days for coverage and every 7 days for service pages.

Company self-report: offered The company's own page says it offers the service there. This is not a check of licensing or quality.
Conflicting Two or more of the company's own pages disagree. Both values are shown with their dates.
Not found in sources checked The researcher looked and did not find it. This is not the same as not offered.
Explicitly not offered The company's page says it does not serve that place.
Not applicable The service is a public program limited to one province by design.
Not researched Nobody has looked yet.
