Employers, health plans, PBMs and benefit platforms are the route in, so most people arrive through a benefit rather than a checkout; an individual track does exist. Vida's Medical Weight Loss program writes anti-obesity drugs, GLP-1s among them, and pairs them with behavioral-health coaching and medical management. The wider platform is built for chronic care and covers weight, chronic conditions, sleep, nutrition and lifestyle change, with the enterprise buyer front of mind.

CoreAge Rx
What we like
- Semaglutide at $99 a month, 48% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $149 a month, 44% below the $267 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Publishes a price on its own site before the medical questionnaire, so it can be compared without handing over health information
- The monthly price is recorded as flat across doses, so it does not climb as the dose is titrated up
- The monthly figure covers medication, consult, shipping
- Coverage is published for all 50 states
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
- Its semaglutide and tirzepatide are compounded rather than FDA-approved, so they have not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
