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.

Found

Insured shoppers who want clinician visits billed through their plan, and anyone who wants a coached program with brand-name drugs available if they need them.

Reasons to consider it

  • Two ways to pay: with insurance you see a clinician by video for your copay, usually about $30, and with cash pay care is mostly by text with no copay
  • Compounded medication is included in the plan price on both tracks, at the same price at every dose
  • Longer plans lower the price per cycle: insured semaglutide falls from $199 to $159, $129 and $99 on three, six and twelve months

What to weigh up

  • The $99 headline is the insured price on a twelve-month plan paid up front; one month at a time is $199 insured or $289 cash
  • Tirzepatide costs more: $289 a month with insurance and $359 with cash, or $179 and $239 a month on a prepaid year
  • Plans bill every 28 days, so a year is 13 charges rather than 12

Sesame Care

People who want FDA-approved Wegovy, Zepbound or the Foundayo pill, a provider they pick themselves, and the option to collect it at a local pharmacy the same day.

Reasons to consider it

  • Brand-name choices include the Wegovy pill and pen, Wegovy HD, Zepbound vials and KwikPen, and the Foundayo pill
  • Medication starts at $149 a month for the Wegovy pill or Foundayo and $299 for a Zepbound vial or KwikPen
  • You choose your own provider, meet by video, and get lab work when your provider wants metabolic data

What to weigh up

  • Two separate charges: the care plan and the medication are billed apart, so the floor is about $208 a month, not $149
  • The $59 care price needs a 12-month commitment; month to month it is $99, or $79 on three months and $69 on six
  • No compounded option, so nothing here costs less than the brand-name self-pay prices
