Site position #23 · B−
Strengths
- Public selectors show full charges for 30-, 90- and 360-day plans across the listed GLP-1 products
- Advertises the same pricing across doses, ongoing clinical messaging and included injection supplies
- Current terms name MDI Medical Group PC and four partner pharmacy brands
- A 30-day purchase is advertised alongside the larger prepaid options
What to consider
- Lowest advertised equivalents require $1,718/$2,390 360-day billing plans; terms reject prorated refunds
- Product pages list $20/$30 consultation fees while How It Works says consultation is included and ineligible payments are refunded in full
- The forty-state claim is specific to sublingual tirzepatide; an injection-state map was not established
- Assigned clinician/pharmacy branch, patient lab costs, final first debit and usable prescription supply remain unresolved
Site position #383 · C
Strengths
- Offers a Responsible Prescribing track with optimized GLP-1 use
- Clinically monitored medication off-ramp toward nutrition therapy
- Nutrition-focused care with published program outcomes; those results do not establish equivalence to GLP-1 medication
- Provided at no cost to members through employers and health plans
- Strong evidence base for diabetes reversal and metabolic health
What to consider
- Primarily a nutrition program; GLP-1s are a secondary track
- Distributed via employers and health plans, no direct cash-pay
- Deliberately discourages GLP-1 use for most members
- GLP-1 access depends on the specific program the plan selects
