- Coverage
- Multi-state
- Brand-name
- Compounded only
The scorecard
KERNX Health scored on our six published factors. See the methodology.
What we like
- Plan pricing is published openly before any intake or account creation
- Month-to-month billing with no long-term contract and no multi-month prepayment
- Billing begins only after a licensed provider approves treatment
- Cancel before the next renewal date from the account or by email, which stops all future charges
The caveats
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products and have not been reviewed for safety, effectiveness or quality
- The pricing page contradicts itself: one section says there are no separate consultation charges, another says $25-$60 applies per visit
- That consultation fee is charged whether or not a prescription is issued
- The $129 and $199 rates are time-limited founding rates; standard rates are $249 and $299, roughly double
- No compounding pharmacy is named, only described as an FDA-registered 503B facility
The verdict
Best for: Buyers who want month-to-month billing with no prepayment and will budget for the separate per-visit fee. Washington DC telehealth platform with month-to-month compounded GLP-1 plans, undermined by a pricing page that contradicts itself on whether consultations cost extra.
