About FlyteHealth

FlyteHealth is an obesity-medicine telehealth platform distributed mainly through employers, payers, and health plans, with care led by board-certified obesity-medicine physicians plus nurse practitioners, dietitians, and care coordinators. GLP-1s may be prescribed when appropriate, alongside non-GLP-1 anti-obesity drugs, labs, nutrition, and lifestyle support. It is not a direct cash-pay GLP-1 vendor, though individuals can access it via the MDsave/Tendo marketplace and a FlyteHealth Direct self-pay option. Reported outcomes include roughly 13 to 16 percent weight loss over twelve months.
