MEDGm

#53 of 53
2.7/10

MEDGm is a telehealth company selling compounded GLP-1 injections from $179/mo and dissolvable tablets from $249/mo, with brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic offered as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost. The compounded prices are readable before intake and the not-FDA-approved disclosure is prominent, which is more than several better-known programs manage. The gap is verification: no clinician, no pharmacy and no accreditation is named anywhere on the site or in its terms.

Pros & Cons Compared

Found

Pros

  • +Active insurance coordination, Found contacts your insurer and reports which GLP-1s are covered, prior auth requirements, and estimated copay
  • +10+ medication options including both compounded and brand-name (Wegovy, Zepbound, Wegovy pill), the widest formulary of any platform
  • +Typical insured copay of ~$30/mo for most members, dramatically lower than cash-pay alternatives
  • +Most members start treatment within one week of completing the health questionnaire

Cons

  • Costs vary by insurance status and medication choice rather than one flat rate; run Found's coverage check first to see your exact copay before paying
  • The insurance navigation process adds steps compared to simple cash-pay platforms; the payoff is the ~$30 typical copay
  • Compounded medication availability may shift with FDA enforcement changes; the 10+ medication formulary lets your clinician move you to a brand-name option if it does

MEDGm

Pros

  • +Compounded prices visible on the landing page without starting an intake
  • +Prominent, correctly-worded disclosure that compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-approved
  • +Cancel any time, with a published refund policy rather than a buried one
  • +Claims no accreditation it cannot support, which is rarer than it should be
  • +HSA/FSA accepted; free shipping stated

Cons

  • No medical director, prescribing clinician or medical group is named anywhere
  • No compounding pharmacy is named; the terms promise a partner list that the terms do not contain
  • Brand-name Zepbound, Wegovy and Ozempic are priced as a membership plus an unpublished medication cost, so no brand total can be compared
  • No lab panel is offered or required at any tier
  • The homepage claims 120,000+ patients on a domain registered 2026-04-08; we could not reconcile the two
  • A prepaid contracted term is non-refundable, and dispensed medication is never refundable
  • No third-party rating exists that we could locate and verify

Our Verdict

Found edges out MEDGm with a score of 7.3/10 vs 2.7/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: Found is published $148/mo; total not verified; MEDGm is from $179/mo. Found accepts insurance, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
