TeleHealth Med Review: Price, Pros & Cons

TeleHealth Med doesn't publish a price for its GLP-1 program. You'll see what it costs only after you start the intake and choose a medication. It sells compounded GLP-1 treatment as a monthly subscription, billed as one price for the month.

That single price can include provider consultations, the medication, lab services and round-the-clock patient support. TeleHealth Med says the services, labs and medications covered by that price may vary, so ask what your month includes before you pay, and whether the price rises as your dose goes up. You don't need insurance. Major credit cards, HSA and FSA cards are accepted.

TeleHealth Med offers compounded GLP-1s in two forms. The injectable version is usually taken once a week. The sublingual version dissolves under your tongue and is usually taken once a day. Ask your provider which one fits you before you start.

Medication is prepared by licensed U.S. 503A compounding pharmacies, which make each order for a named patient, and shipped with free expedited delivery. TeleHealth Med doesn't name the pharmacies or a medical director, and it doesn't publish a list of the states it serves.

The health intake takes under five minutes. You pay after choosing your medication, and then a licensed, board-certified clinician reviews your answers. Depending on your history, you either get a video visit with a doctor or your prescription is approved within about a day. Tracking details usually follow within two business days.

Refills run on a monthly check-in form. When your supply is running low, you get an email, your clinician confirms you can continue, and the next month ships automatically. Messages about side effects or dose changes go through the patient portal at no extra charge. If you're switching from another program at a higher dose, the provider reviews your dosing history first.

TeleHealth Med, Inc. is based in Evans, Georgia, and describes itself as a patient management platform. The physicians and pharmacies are independent companies.

If a provider finds you ineligible, you're refunded in full within 24 to 48 hours, including any video visit fee. After that, the rules tighten. You can get a refund for the current month only if your medication hasn't been ordered yet. For a new patient that usually means before your intake is submitted, or before the video visit ends if one is required. Shipped medication isn't refundable, and neither are partly used subscription periods or bundles.

To cancel, email customer service or use your account at least 72 hours before your billing date. Miss that window and you're charged for one more month, with the cancellation taking effect after it.
