About Teladoc Health
Ask what Teladoc Health charges and the site gives no answer; the figure sits with your plan or your employer, which leaves it opaque as a cash-pay route for most members. It counts among the largest virtual care companies, claiming partnerships with 100-plus US health plans and with over half of Fortune 500 employers. Weight management runs through a GLP-1 Prescription and Support program dedicated to it, backed by coaching, nutrition services and connected devices for tracking. Employers and health plans are the main door in, though individuals may enroll on their own.

Teladoc Health
What we like
- No FDA warning letter matched this operator when we searched our enforcement register
Watch-outs
- No price appears until the medical intake is complete, so the cost cannot be compared before health information is submitted
- Billed separately from the monthly figure: medication
- No state list is on record here, so whether it serves your state cannot be confirmed from this page
- No dispensing pharmacy is named in our record, so its accreditation cannot be looked up from here
bmiMD
What we like
- Semaglutide at $99 a month, 48% below the $189 median for the same drug and form across this register
- Tirzepatide at $139 a month, 48% 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
