Enara Health
48/100Where the value is
- In-network with major insurers (UHC, BCBS, Aetna, Cigna, Humana) -- can be far cheaper than cash-pay for covered patients
- Cites outcomes data ('22% weight loss at 18 months' with GLP-1s)
- Partner clinic network model rather than pure telehealth-only
The tradeoffs
- Only available via partner clinics in 6 (unnamed) states -- not nationwide
- No cash-pay price list -- unusable for comparison shoppers without matching insurance
Prime Health
48/100Where the value is
- Flat pricing that doesn't rise as your dose increases
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide offered
- 10% weight-loss money-back guarantee
The tradeoffs
- No medical director named anywhere on the site
- No compounding pharmacy partner disclosed
