Aspire Health Review: Price, Pros & Cons

Aspire Health charges in two parts: a monthly medical care fee for your provider, and the medication, priced separately. The first consultation is free, so you can review your history and labs with a provider before you pay anything.

The medication is priced by your weekly dose, and Aspire publishes the full list on its weight-loss page. A few things about how it works:

• Compounded tirzepatide and semaglutide are each listed dose by dose, from the starting dose up to the top dose. The price rises as the dose goes up, so expect your cost to climb during the first months.
• One vial doesn't always mean four weeks. Depending on the dose, a vial lasts anywhere from four weeks to ten. Check the "supply per vial" column for your dose, not just the price.
• You can buy one, two or three vials at a time. Multi-vial orders ship together. At the higher semaglutide doses, three vials cost less than three single vials.
• Brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound are listed too, priced per four weeks in dose tiers, and Aspire says your cost there depends on your insurance coverage.

Doses above the listed range are quoted on request. Ask your provider to confirm the dose, vial size and total before you're prescribed.

The care fee pays for provider visits, an initial consultation and then visits every two to three months, plus lab orders with interpretation and medical guidance. The labs themselves aren't included, but they can be billed to insurance. Aspire doesn't take insurance for visits, though your insurance may cover labs or brand-name medication. HSA and FSA cards work for visits and compounded medication, and you can pay in installments through Cherry.

Its compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are made with vitamin B3. The FAQ names three pharmacies: Strive Pharmacy in Gilbert, Arizona, Boudreaux's New Drug Store in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and Rush Pharmacy in Oviedo, Florida.

Aspire is a small telehealth practice, founded by physician assistant Jenni Haan, that also treats hormones, hair loss and skin. Visits happen by secure message, phone or video. It serves patients only in states where its providers are licensed, and you must be in one of those states at the time of each visit. Check the state map on its contact page before booking.

Refills aren't automatic. Your provider has to review each one, and you may need a follow-up visit or labs before a refill is issued.

You can cancel your membership by email at any time. It ends at the close of the current billing cycle, and partial months aren't refunded. Consultation fees are generally non-refundable once the provider has reviewed your case, even if you're not a candidate for treatment. Medication sales are final once shipped, except for a pharmacy or shipping error. Compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-approved.
