GoodRx vs HealthSource
The verdict
HealthSource takes it — 71.2/100 to 69.6/100, but only just.
HealthSource grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. HealthSource is a telehealth weight-management platform offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide (injectable and oral sublingual) dispensed through a US-based FDA 503A licensed partner pharmacy. GoodRx is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
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.

Graded #116 · 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
Graded #96 · C
Strengths
- Three GLP-1 options: compounded semaglutide injection, tirzepatide injection, and oral sublingual tirzepatide
- 24/7 access to care team via HIPAA-compliant platform with unlimited physician messaging
- Every program covers the cost of medication, supplies, and telehealth visits — no separate pharmacy fee
- Subscription auto-refund if monthly reassessment is not completed
- Available in all 50 US states including Alaska and Hawaii with 3–5 day shipping
Where it loses points
- No physician names or clinical leadership disclosed on public pages
- No LegitScript certification found
- 503A partner pharmacy not named — less transparent than providers disclosing their 503B pharmacy
- Labs not mentioned on any product page — baseline bloodwork protocol unknown
- WooCommerce e-commerce storefront may feel more transactional than clinical
