Pros & Cons Compared

Hone Health

Pros

+40+ biomarker lab panel included, the most comprehensive baseline testing of any GLP-1 telehealth provider
+Full health optimization platform covering hormones, longevity, and metabolic health beyond just weight loss
+Starts patients on gentler liraglutide before escalating, reduces first-week side effect severity
+Both compounded and potentially brand-name GLP-1 options available depending on clinical assessment

Cons

−Layered pricing: $65 initial consult + $149/mo membership + medication cost = $300-650/mo total, one of the most expensive options
−Select state availability, not available nationwide, and coverage varies by specific treatment program
−The $149/mo membership fee is required even before you can purchase any medication

MyStart Health

Pros

+Price Lock Guarantee ensures your monthly rate never increases even as your GLP-1 dose escalates, a genuine differentiator

+Access to 600+ board-certified doctors with unlimited clinician messaging at no additional cost
+HSA/FSA eligible, can use pre-tax health savings to pay for treatment

Cons

−Cash-pay only, no insurance accepted. If your plan covers GLP-1s, price that route first; HSA/FSA cards do work here
−Select states only, not all 50, and the exact list isn't published. Confirm your state during the intake quiz before paying
−Compounded medications only, no brand-name GLP-1 option on the menu
