PlushCare

+Low $19.99/mo membership with first month free, and insurance-eligible visits as low as a $30 copay
+Accepts major insurance plans (Aetna, Cigna, Humana), broader than most single-purpose GLP-1 telehealth startups
+Physician-led primary care model covers ongoing and chronic care beyond a single weight-loss funnel
−Branded GLP-1 medication (Zepbound, Wegovy) is billed separately at the pharmacy — without insurance coverage this can run roughly $1,000+/month, dwarfing the low membership fee
−No compounded GLP-1 option, so cash-pay patients without drug coverage face full retail brand pricing
−Trustpilot pattern of unexpected recurring membership charges and difficulty cancelling

Telos Rx

+Names both its clinical provider (Arora Health & Aesthetics) and its dispensing pharmacy (VialsRX) with contact details
+Flat GLP-1 pricing that does not rise with dose, plus oral, microdosed and injectable GLP-1 formats
+Full refund, including the visit fee, if a provider declines to prescribe
−Launched in 2026 (domain registered April 2026) with only 14 Trustpilot reviews
−Advertised 'as low as' rates depend on plan length and sit beside struck-through prices of $249–399, so the actual month-to-month cost is unclear before intake
−Named pharmacy is unlicensed in 10 states (including CA and TX) even though the site claims 50-state service
