Ascend Medical vs Human+
The verdict
Human+ takes it — 59.8/100 to 55.9/100.
Human+ grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Human+ (HUMAN+, INC.) is an 'at-cost' telehealth membership in all 50 states: you pay a flat monthly fee and prescriptions are billed at pharmacy-wholesale cost rather than marked up.
We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.
