Which fits your priorities?
Only the points where these two differ, from the table above and each provider’s record.
Choose Live Vital if…

- No video visit required
- Physician-led — founded by Dr. Patrick Taylor, MD; all treatments doctor-prescribed via the clinical team
What to weigh up

- Doesn't accept insurance (HSA/FSA funds only)
Choose Midi Health if…
- Lists oral compounded semaglutide and oral compounded tirzepatide, which Live Vital doesn't price
- Accepts commercial insurance — a differentiator vs cash-pay-only GLP-1 telehealth
