The better fit depends on what is included in your quote. A lower advertised price can require prepayment, apply to a starting dose or leave out a separate fee.

Emerge Weight Loss

Shoppers who specifically want tirzepatide with per-dose-tier pricing shown up front, not semaglutide.

Reasons to consider it

  • Publishes a price for every dose, $224 to $289 per four weeks across six strengths, rather than a single 'starting at' figure
  • No signup fee and no separate doctor fee — the FAQ states syringes, overnight shipping and medical oversight are bundled into the quoted price
  • No minimum commitment; cancel anytime with only a $10 processing fee if an order hasn't shipped yet

What to weigh up

  • No semaglutide product at all — Emerge is tirzepatide-only, so it's not an option for patients who specifically want or are already on semaglutide
  • The 'Maintenance Plans from $49 per 4 weeks' line is misleading on its own — refills actually cost $99/vial, so $49 is a floor, not the real recurring price
  • The two highest dose tiers (12.5mg and 15mg, $279-$289) are restricted to existing patients only, so new patients can't see or lock in pricing for where they may eventually titrate

Steady State Health

Women in perimenopause or menopause in Oregon or Washington who want GLP-1 treatment folded into hormone and metabolic care.

Reasons to consider it

  • Care comes from one named clinician, Josie Cowburn, DNP, FNP-C, with a medical assistant between visits
  • Monthly provider visits and a weekly live Zoom Q&A are part of the membership
  • Offers both semaglutide and tirzepatide, chosen with you based on your history, response and budget

What to weigh up

  • Only patients located in Oregon or Washington can enroll
  • Medication is billed separately from the $149 membership and runs about $110 to $150 a month
  • You need current metabolic labs; without them, the lab panel is a one-time $190
