Pros & Cons Compared

bmiMD

Pros

+Same-day physician consults, one of the few platforms offering telehealth appointments the same day you apply
+80,000+ customer base with 4.9-star Trustpilot rating provides strong social proof of reliability
+100% money-back guarantee if your consultation determines you don't qualify for GLP-1 treatment
+HSA/FSA accepted for all programs

Cons

−Standard semaglutide pricing is $289/mo, above competitors at $99-199/mo; the TAKEOFF 3-month entry (about $99/mo first month) and annual plans from $99/mo bring the effective rate down
−$29.99 shipping fee per order where most competitors ship free; factor it into your monthly total
−A $50 non-refundable cancellation fee applies after intake approval; decide before the consult, and cancel at least 48 hours ahead of your monthly processing date

Zealthy

Pros

+Dedicated insurance coordinators handle prior authorizations, potentially bringing brand-name GLP-1 costs to $25/mo
+Multi-month supply options (3, 6, or 12 months), unique convenience most monthly-shipping competitors can't match
+Both compounded and brand-name (Wegovy, Zepbound) available with clinician-guided selection
+LegitScript certified with 4.5-star Review.io rating

Cons

−The $135 membership stacks on medication cost, so cash-pay semaglutide totals ~$286/mo, above average. The math works when you use the insurance coordination; cash payers should compare flat-rate platforms first.
−Young company (founded 2023) with a relatively small review base and less track record than established platforms. Confirm the coordination promise against your own insurance plan before enrolling.
−Prescription products are non-refundable once ordered, for any reason. Double-check dose and supply length before checkout.
