Revel Health
69/100Where the value is
- All-in pricing confirmed on-site — consultation, medication, supplies, and shipping in one number, no add-on fees disclosed
- LegitScript verification seal is live and checkable for myrevelhealth.com
- Explicit, specific 45-state coverage list published rather than a vague claim
The tradeoffs
- The prominently displayed $99/$149 figures are first-month-only promotional prices — the standing rate from month two on is $199/$249, and the page's side-by-side display makes the promo easy to mistake for the ongoing price
- Not available in AK, AR, NC, NJ, or MS
OrderlyMeds
68/100Where the value is
- The starter rate and the standing rate are both published, so the step-up is visible before signing up
- No membership fees and no hidden costs, stated as such
- The dose ladder is published: four weeks at 0.25 mg then four weeks at 0.5 mg
The tradeoffs
- The $74 rate is a two-month starter plan billed as $149 up front, and it is open only to patients new to GLP-1 medication; the standing monthly rate is $149
- Tirzepatide has no equivalent standing discount — $299/mo is the ongoing rate
