Mochi Health

  • Without insurance, the membership costs $79 billed monthly, or $207, $354 or $588 paid up front for 3, 6 or 12 months ($69, $59 or $49 a month). Medication and diagnostic services are extra. On the monthly plan your recurring starting total is $139 for compounded semaglutide or $169 for tirzepatide, and the prescribed dose can raise the medication price.
  • Prescription sales are final. Mochi gives no refunds for partly used subscription periods; any refund is discretionary and capped at the fee you paid in the month before you ask (checked 2026-10-17)
Mochi Health's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • Compounded semaglutide starts at $60/mo and compounded tirzepatide at $90/mo on Mochi's medication pages, or $146 and $236 for a three-month supply (checked 2026-10-17)
  • Semaglutide comes in two compounded forms, a once-weekly injection from $60/mo and a once-weekly oral pill from $62/mo, so needles are avoidable (checked 2026-10-17)
  • Registered dietitians included alongside physicians, not just medication, but nutritional support
  • Brand-name GLP-1s sold beside the compounded ones, with Zepbound from $299/mo, Ozempic and Wegovy from $199/mo, and the Wegovy Pill and Foundayo from $149/mo (checked 2026-10-17)
  • If you use insurance, Mochi's insured membership costs $199 for 12 months ($17/mo) or $119 for 6 months, with visits billed to your plan and prior-authorization help (checked 2026-10-17)

More to watch for

  • Mochi's link to its $79-off promotion terms opens a 404 page, so the banner's short conditions are the only published terms for that offer (checked 2026-10-17)

Noom Med

  • The $69 starter and $99 ongoing medication-inclusive pill plan is metformin, not a GLP-1. Branded GLP-1 telehealth costs $39 initially then $129/month billed quarterly, with medication purchased separately.
  • The full GLP-1Rx Program is billed quarterly after the $129 start, so the $249/mo is charged three months at a time rather than monthly
Noom Med's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • Tiered 2026 entry, the $39 branded telehealth tier lets users start with clinical care and the coaching app while filling a brand-name prescription through their own pharmacy
  • Medication-inclusive Microdose GLP-1Rx starts at $79 for four weeks, then $179/mo billed quarterly; clinical suitability needs a prescriber's assessment
  • The branded-medication pathway supports members seeking prescriptions through insurance; actual drug coverage depends on the plan
  • Digital program includes food and activity tracking, coaching tools and short behavioral lessons

More to watch for

  • The $39 branded telehealth tier does not include the cost of the medication, so a brand-name prescription costs extra on top of the $129/mo renewal membership
  • App coaching still requires real engagement, skip-prone users waste the behavioral value
Medicines listed
  • Wegovy
  • Zepbound
  • Ozempic
  • Mounjaro
  • Semaglutide (compounded)
  • Tirzepatide (compounded)
  • Liraglutide (generic)
  • Metformin
