Medications

semaglutidetirzepatide

Pros

✓In-network with most major private insurance plans and Medicare, so Care Team visits, lab tests and medication are billed through insurance and you pay only your copay or deductible. Almost no other provider on this site accepts insurance at all
✓A self-pay option is published openly at $299/month, covering clinician visits, appointments with a Registered Dietitian, unlimited messaging and platform access (checked July 28, 2026)
✓Care is led by a clinician certified by the American Board of Obesity Medicine - a genuine subspecialty credential rather than a generic 'licensed provider' claim
✓You work 1:1 with a multidisciplinary team including registered dietitians, not just a prescriber
✓Reports 16% average weight loss at 18 months across all treatment pathways, with and without medication - an unusually long follow-up, and it discloses the figure comes from its own book of business
✓Also reports mean HbA1c improving from 9.0% to 6.2% among patients with the highest initial readings
✓Prescribes FDA-approved branded GLP-1s rather than compounded preparations
✓A published phone number and email address, plus an employer-facing cardiometabolic offering

Cons

✗On the $299/month self-pay plan the fee covers the care team and platform only - medication cost is separate and on top, so the true monthly outlay can be far higher than $299
✗If your insurance does not cover obesity medication, this route may end up more expensive than a cash-pay compounded provider rather than cheaper
✗What you actually pay is unknowable in advance when going through insurance, since it depends on your plan, deductible and coverage decisions
✗Eligibility is gated at BMI 30+ (or lower with weight-related conditions) and age 18+, so it is narrower than providers that prescribe on symptoms alone
✗The 16% and HbA1c figures come from Form Health's own patient data rather than a controlled trial, though the company says so plainly
✗A 4.2 Trustpilot average is the lowest among the established providers we cover, albeit on a moderate sample of around 800
✗Insurance-based care involves prior authorisations and coverage checks, so onboarding is slower than a cash-pay service that ships within 48 hours
✗GLP-1 medications are not suitable for anyone with a personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2, or during pregnancy

Medications

semaglutidetirzepatidemetformin

Pros

✓One of the cheapest published entry prices in the category: "GLP-1's As Low as $118"
✓Both a GLP-1 with B12 and a GLP-1 + GIP with B12 injectable are offered, so semaglutide-class and tirzepatide-class options are both available
✓A free assessment before you pay anything
✓It is explicit that medication only follows a real consultation: "Before receiving any medication, patients are required to complete an online assessment and have a consultation with one of our healthcare providers"
✓Metformin is offered from $69.98, which is a legitimate lower-cost option for some patients rather than an upsell
✓A wider catalogue including B-12, lipotropic injections and peptides for people who want them
✓Prices for every product line are published on the collection pages rather than gated behind signup

Cons

✗The medication is compounded and not FDA-approved
✗"Tested in FDA approved labs" is a phrase that does not mean anything specific. The FDA does not approve labs in this sense, and the claim implies a regulatory blessing the product does not have
✗"As low as $118" is a floor price with no dose ladder published, so it is unclear what happens to the price as you titrate
✗Adding B12 to a compounded GLP-1 is a common way to make a product "personalised" enough to justify compounding it. There is no evidence B12 improves weight-loss outcomes
✗No phone number, support email or business address is published
✗No refund, cancellation, HSA/FSA or insurance information is published
✗No pharmacy is named
✗No states-served list
