The verdict

GoodRx takes it — 69.6/100 to 67.5/100.

GoodRx grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. GoodRx (NASDAQ: GDRX) is the largest US prescription savings platform.

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.

Blue Sky MD

Graded #169 · C

Strengths

  • LegitScript certified and physician-led since 2008; one of the most established GLP-1 practices in the Southeast
  • Compounded semaglutide from $40/week (~$160/month) and tirzepatide from $60/week (~$240/month) — well below brand-name cost
  • Comprehensive program includes 1-on-1 wellness coaching, nutrition plans, hormone analysis, and a proprietary mobile app
  • Medication shipped directly to patients’ homes within 3–5 business days; telehealth visits available
  • Insurance accepted in many cases; affordable self-pay options for uninsured patients

Where it loses points

  • Geographic reach unclear — physical clinics in NC only; telehealth states beyond NC unconfirmed despite 'from virtually anywhere' claim
  • Pricing quoted per-week ($40 sema / $60 tirz) rather than per-month; higher-dose pricing not disclosed
  • Must enroll in full medical weight-loss program to access GLP-1 medications — medication-only Rx not offered
  • No explicit lab testing protocol published; online FAQ does not confirm labs are included
  • Small regional provider vs. national platforms; limited provider footprint outside North Carolina
GoodRx

Graded #125 · C

Strengths

  • $149/month self-pay for brand-name Foundayo (orforglipron) — matches the lowest cash price at launch, far below typical retail
  • $299/month self-pay for Zepbound KwikPen — well under Lilly's typical cash list price
  • Honored at 70,000+ US pharmacies — the largest retail redemption network of any GLP-1 channel we cover
  • No membership fee — bring your own prescription and present the discount card at the pharmacy counter
  • Brand-name FDA-approved medication, not compounded

Where it loses points

  • Requires a valid prescription — GoodRx is a discount card, not a prescriber; you still need a clinician to write the script
  • Self-pay only — does not apply toward insurance benefits or deductibles
  • Headline price applies to the lowest Foundayo dose; higher doses may cost more
  • No compounded GLP-1 options — not the channel for compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide
  • Pricing can change as Lilly's manufacturer coupon program evolves

Also worth a look

Neither is our top-graded pick — CoreAge Rx leads the scorecard

Across all 499 providers, CoreAge Rx grades highest at 91.8/100 (A−). Top of the scorecard: flat transparent pricing, both molecules, nationwide — no teaser-rate games.
