The scorecard
MyStart Health scored on our six published factors. See the methodology.
What we like
- The price-lock is stated plainly: 'the price of medication and ongoing care will never increase from your base plan amount, EVEN if your dosage increases in subsequent months'
- Roughly five-minute intake with a prescription inside 24 hours or a same-day video consultation
- The $299 base covers physician evaluations, follow-ups, unlimited clinician messaging, medication, any necessary blood work and shipping
- Publishes a clear Section 503A compounding disclosure stating the medications are not FDA-approved or FDA-evaluated for safety, effectiveness or quality
- Phone and email support with published weekday and Saturday hours, plus 24/7 care-team access
The caveats
- FDA issued a warning letter to Matthew Stern, CEO MyStart Health LLC. in September 2025; it is public in FDA's warning-letter database
- Compounded only — no FDA-approved Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or Zepbound, and no oral route
- Compounded medications are not FDA-approved and have not been evaluated by the FDA for safety, effectiveness or quality
- Only the '$299/month, excluding any discounts' floor is published; per-drug plan pricing sits behind the quiz and a signed medical-accuracy attestation, and payment is taken before the clinician review
- Refund Policy effective 1 December 2025 makes shipped orders strictly non-refundable and non-returnable under any circumstances; pharmacy partners are described only as 'independent third-party pharmacies'

Best for: Someone who values speed of onboarding above price transparency and is content to be billed before a clinician has reviewed them.
