Meli Health
What we like
- Names both its clinician network, LocumTele, and the compounding pharmacy that fills orders, Rush Pharmacy
- Treatment pages show the first-month and ongoing monthly price before you start the intake
- Your card is pre-authorized and charged only if a physician prescribes treatment
- The monthly price includes the provider consultation, medication and free expedited shipping
- Month-to-month plan you can cancel from your patient portal or by email
- Intake and clinician review happen online, with no in-person visit
Watch-outs
- The results screen says your plan is approved, with a countdown timer, before any clinician has reviewed your answers
- Checkout pre-selects a $29.95 priority review add-on, so you must untick it to pay the advertised price
- The $147 and $179 prices are first-month offers; plans renew at $229 and $299 a month
- Checkout advertises a money-back guarantee, but the refund policy rules out refunds once medication is dispensed
- Support is by email only, though the site advertises unlimited 24/7 support
- You must cancel at least 48 hours before your billing date to avoid the next charge, with no prorated refunds
- The LegitScript seal on the site could not be matched to a LegitScript record, and there is no Trustpilot profile
- Not available in California
Vytora Health
What we like
- All 50 states plus DC, with per-state video-vs-audio compliance disclosed
- Both compounded and brand-name options on one platform — uncommon
- LegitScript Approved and HIPAA compliant
- Pharmacy partners named publicly: Vials Pharmacy (TX) and Greenwich Biosciences
- Operating entity disclosed: Wasef Health, PC (Pinellas Park, FL)
- Competitive monthly pricing ($180 sema / $249 tirz) plus a 3-month bundle saving 17%
- Brand-name Mounjaro and Zepbound available at $1,399/mo for FDA-approved options
Watch-outs
- Brand-name Mounjaro/Zepbound at $1,399/mo is near retail — insured patients may do better via LillyDirect Self Pay ($449-$699/mo)
- Compounded tirzepatide at $249/mo is mid-market, above the $149-199 floor
- Dose tiers aren't broken out — 'all doses included' means low-dose patients pay the same as high-dose
- Initial consultation cost not shown on the public pricing page
- Limited per-prescriber state licensure detail
