CoreAge Rx
What we like
- Flat, all-in monthly price with no intro-rate step-ups after month one
- Both compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide on one account
- Available in all 50 states
- Straightforward, low-friction cancellation
The caveats
- Not the cheapest — flat-price challengers like Trimi Health and Alan Meds undercut its sticker price
- No FDA-approved brand-name option (compounded only)
- Does not yet publicly name its 503A/B pharmacy partner
TD Tele-Doc Weight Loss
What we like
- Brand Wegovy/Zepbound AND compounded sema available; prescribing based on medical history and coverage
- 100% virtual — weekly appointments with board-certified MDs from home; no travel required
- Remote Patient Monitoring Starter Box: biometric scale + blood pressure cuff sync to care team in real time
- In-network with most commercial insurance plans; may cover visits and monitoring equipment
- Physician-led by Dr. Peter Wilbanks MD (30-yr OB/GYN, VCU) and Dr. Michael Perini MD (ABIM board-certified)
The caveats
- No public cash pricing; cost entirely depends on insurance coverage — not viable for uninsured patients
- Telehealth available only in Virginia and Maryland; no national reach confirmed
- No Medicare or Medicaid accepted; limited to commercial insurance plans only
- No LegitScript certification found; compounded availability and specific pricing undisclosed on site
- Tirzepatide (Zepbound/Mounjaro) availability less prominent in MD pages; semaglutide is primary focus
