Scope of the review
We compared 10 U.S. telehealth providers with public cash-pay GLP-1 pricing. This is a selected comparison, not a census of every provider in the market. Different medication types remain labeled because a compounded injection and an FDA-approved brand product are not interchangeable.
Source hierarchy
We use provider-owned public pages first: current pricing pages, program pages, offer terms, help centers, or official company announcements. We do not use anonymous forum posts to set a price. Every provider profile links to the page used.
Price normalization
- Identify the medication category and format.
- Add a clearly required membership or program fee to medication-only pricing.
- Label first-month promotions and ongoing rates separately.
- State when a monthly equivalent requires multi-month or annual prepayment.
- Preserve dose-dependent ranges instead of presenting the minimum as universal.
- Do not convert insurance copays into a cash-pay estimate.
How we choose our cash-pay pick
We look at four shopping factors: entry price, required commitment, services included in the listed price, and stated geographic availability. SurpassMD is our current cash-pay value pick because it combines the lowest semaglutide entry price in this comparison with recurring billing, bundled services, and stated service across 50 states and D.C. This is not a clinical-quality ranking.
Ordering and compensation
Our recommended provider appears first. Compensation may influence how and where providers appear, as described in our disclosure. Price facts, commitments, and source links remain visible so readers can inspect the basis for the recommendation.
Update cadence
Prices were checked August 28, 2026. We plan periodic rechecks and may update earlier when a provider changes a public offer. Readers should always verify current terms at checkout.
What we do not judge
We do not decide medical eligibility, prescribe medication, evaluate pharmacies, or declare compounded products equivalent to FDA-approved brands. We do not guarantee price, availability, shipping time, or treatment results.
