About HumeCare+
HumeCare+ is the GLP-1 telehealth program from Hume Health, the body-composition scale company. It pairs clinician-prescribed compounded semaglutide with continuous body-composition tracking via an included Hume Pod device, so you can see whether you are losing fat rather than muscle. Semaglutide is $199/mo and tirzepatide $299/mo, flat at every dose, billed monthly and cancelable anytime — though no price appears on the marketing site until you finish the intake quiz. The state list, prescribing medical group and pharmacy partner are not named.
