This guide looks at the first three months create an initial financial commitment. The aim is to help you ask a better next question, whether you are checking a first prescription offer or thinking about moving to another service.

The services below have different care and payment models. We describe their own published terms and link to fuller files, so an appealing price can be read alongside the work, obligations, and uncertainties attached to it.

How to use this comparison

For someone comparing Calibrate, begin with this issue: the first three months create an initial financial commitment. Different arrangements can make more sense for different needs, so ask the same concrete question of every candidate.

CoreAge Rx has a commercial first position in this guide. We may be compensated through its links. The sequence is not an independently calculated medical ranking, and inclusion does not mean every service supplies every feature discussed here.

Use the documents for the actual treatment, location, and payment agreement. A service may be useful to compare even when its approach differs: a consultation-only pathway, an inclusive package, and a care membership should not be assumed to buy the same thing.

  • Name the exact care service.
  • Request the complete payment schedule.
  • Check the product, pharmacy, and exit terms.

01. CoreAge Rx — commercial first position

This is the featured commercial partner. The placement should not be interpreted as proof of superior outcomes, lower total cost, or the best clinical choice for a particular person.

CoreAge Rx describes assessment online followed by dispensing when a clinician issues a prescription. It is Panda Bear’s commercial partner; that arrangement determines its featured position, not an assessment of treatment quality.

Its updated offer starts semaglutide at $79 and tirzepatide at $129 per month equivalent on 12-month plans, totalling $948 and $1,548 respectively. The one-month prices are $139 and $199. No additional membership fee is advertised, but the selected product and supply period still control the invoice.

Will my receipt show one payment or recurring charges, and which pharmacy will be on the label?

2. SuperHealthy Rx — GLP-1 care

SuperHealthy Rx advertises compounded semaglutide from $85/month and tirzepatide from $135/month. The linked offer says the provider visit and shipping are included. Confirm the amount due, plan term and refill settings; a prescription depends on clinician review. These are published service terms, not independently tested outcomes. Current offer.

3. Likeness Rx — GLP-1 weight care

The product name is a starting point for a care conversation. Likeness Rx offers online access to compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. Its public page lists semaglutide from $79/month; tirzepatide from $129/month.

The lowest monthly equivalents accompany 12-month subscriptions: $948 for semaglutide or $1,548 for tirzepatide. One-month plans are $139 and $199. The page says the selected term renews automatically; check the amount due and cancellation date.

The public site describes licensed-provider review, shipping after approval and care-team messaging. Those are service statements rather than measured response times.

These are provider-published terms checked October 4, 2026. Prescription approval is conditional. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved; we have not tested the treatment, pharmacy fulfillment or patient outcomes.

4. WeightWatchers Med+ (Clinic)

WeightWatchers Med+ includes clinical access alongside nutrition and behavioral tools. Readers already using WeightWatchers should confirm how that account relates to the medical program.

The offer advertises $25 for the first month, then $84 monthly on a six-month term or $74 on a twelve-month term. Medication is outside those fees, so the pharmacy amount must be added.

What is the remaining commitment after the introductory month, and does it replace my existing app charge?

5. Shapely

Shapely describes monthly video visits, nutrition access, and coordination with insurers and pharmacies. The insured and self-pay options need separate cost estimates.

Self-pay membership is advertised at $49 for month one and $99 thereafter. Medication is excluded, and laboratory fees may apply. An insured visit should not be assumed to mean an insured weight-loss prescription.

Which visits, tests, and prescriptions are covered under my exact plan, and what are the fallback cash prices?

Open our Shapely review for the terms, evidence limits, and published contact routes.

6. Sesame Care

Success by Sesame describes repeated video appointments and messaging with a clinician. The intended visit frequency should be confirmed for the particular subscription.

The offer starts at $59 monthly with a twelve-month commitment, compared with a $99 month-to-month option. Medicine is additional in both comparisons.

What happens to the remaining twelve-month balance after my first appointment if I choose to stop?

7. Noom Med

Noom’s medical service combines behavior tools with a prescribing pathway. An ordinary app subscription should not be assumed to include the same clinician access or medication process.

The captured page shows a direct GLP-1 offer from $79 and an insurance-related pathway from $39 plus the medicine’s out-of-pocket charge. Identify the offer’s term and whether an existing app payment remains active.

Which Noom subscriptions would remain after I cancel the medical pathway, and where is that confirmed?

Open our Noom Med review for the terms, evidence limits, and published contact routes.

8. PlushCare

PlushCare uses video visits within a primary-care model and describes help with prior authorization when appropriate. It accepts insurance but also provides an uninsured route.

The published membership is $19.99 monthly after an introductory free month. An uninsured initial visit is $129; tests and prescriptions are additional. An insured appointment depends on the individual benefit.

What will membership, visits, testing, and the pharmacy cost separately over the period I expect to need care?

Open our PlushCare review for the terms, evidence limits, and published contact routes.

Source notes12

9. Calibrate

Calibrate describes clinician and coaching video appointments with a curriculum. Insurance navigation is part of the program, but the insurer still makes coverage decisions.

Membership is advertised at $199 monthly. The initial three-month commitment totals $597, paid in installments, and excludes medicine and laboratory work. A low example drug copay does not replace those care charges.

What would I owe if medication coverage is denied during the initial three-month agreement?

Open our Calibrate review for the terms, evidence limits, and published contact routes.

Make the comparison specific to you

After reading the options, select the questions you still need answered. Ask each provider for the same time period, named prescription, and clinical access. Record unclear items as unresolved instead of choosing the lowest advertised number.

If the medicine, route, or treatment goal differs, discuss that difference with the clinician before treating it as an ordinary shopping substitution. The cost worksheet can help compare payments while keeping the medical decision separate.
