The comparison in brief

Both score 86/100 on the Cost-Efficiency Index. There is no score winner; compare the treatment you need, billing terms and state availability.

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.

Kongo

Semaglutide-first shoppers who want a low verified all-50 price and don't mind paying mid-market for tirzepatide.

Reasons to consider it

  • Low $119 semaglutide with nationwide all-50 access and both molecules disclosed
  • LegitScript-certified — verified oversight at a budget semaglutide price
  • Flat published pricing that's easy to model for a year

What to weigh up

  • $229 tirzepatide is mid-market — weaker value if tirzepatide is your molecule
  • Compounded only — no brand-name or oral route

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.

Healthicare

Shoppers who want every line item of the price shown before checkout, at one price for every dose.

Reasons to consider it

  • Every component of the price is itemized on-page — medication, consult, prep, shipping, platform fee, and service fee are each individually listed rather than bundled into one opaque number
  • Named prescriber network and clinician (Beluga Health, Dr. Jonah Mink), with a phone number
  • No membership fee, the same price at every dose, and the site says you can cancel anytime

What to weigh up

  • The published prices apply in every state except California, and the California price isn't shown
  • The only brand-name option is the Wegovy pill, at $268.68 a month for the first two doses and $448.79 at maintenance doses
  • About $21 to $24 of each monthly charge is a HealthiCare service fee, on top of the medication, consultation, preparation, shipping and platform costs it itemizes

Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Understand the medication options.
