Best Telehealth Sites Prescribing GLP-1 Medications

Eden keeps the process simple. You fill out a digital intake form, meet with a licensed medical provider virtually and, if you’re deemed eligible, your GLP-1 prescription can be shipped directly to your door. The platform also includes ongoing messaging with your dedicated care team for questions and follow-ups.

Unlike many telehealth platforms, Eden doesn’t require a monthly membership to be in the program. However, it is a cash-pay service, which means you’ll pay out of pocket for visits and any prescribed medication.

Insurance Details: Eden does not accept or bill insurance. Consultations and medications are paid out of pocket, but HSA and FSA funds can typically be applied to qualifying expenses.

Allara Health was made specifically for women, with a focus on hormonal and metabolic conditions such as PCOS, perimenopause, thyroid disorders and insulin resistance. For many women, that focus can be a game-changer: rather than treating weight as something separate from the rest of your health, Allara looks at how hormones, chronic conditions and metabolism all intersect—especially when those factors make progress feel harder than it “should” be.

If Allara sounds like it might be a fit, the platform offers a quick quiz to help you get a sense of whether it’s right for you.

Insurance Details: Allara Health works with many major insurance plans in eligible states, which may help cover appointment costs depending on your individual coverage. Membership or program fees, as well as medication costs, may still apply.

Teladoc Health is one of the original names in telehealth, offering virtual doctor visits and weight-management programs through certain employer-sponsored weight-management programs. For eligible members, the weight-management program may include a smart scale shipped to your door at no additional cost, along with digital tools to track food and activity and access to health coaches for nutrition and meal-planning support.

Insurance Details: Teladoc works with most major insurance plans and is frequently included in employer-sponsored benefits. Coverage, copays and eligibility vary by plan. Self-pay options are also available.

Serena Williams is the face of Ro’s GLP-1 weight-loss program, having publicly shared her experience using Zepbound (tirzepatide). The company positions itself as a cost-conscious option for accessing prescription weight-loss medications through a fully virtual model.

You do have to subscribe to Ro’s monthly membership program to join, but the fixed fee includes provider oversight, prescription management and refills, insurance navigation support, on-demand messaging and structured health coaching. Medication costs are billed separately.

Insurance Details: Ro accepts many major insurance plans and helps patients navigate prior authorizations and coverage requirements for GLP-1 medications. If your medication is covered, you’ll pay your plan’s copay or coinsurance. If not, Ro also offers cash-pay options at pharmacy-dependent pricing.

Hims and Hers are sister telehealth platforms operating under the same parent company, but they cater to different audiences (Hims focuses on men’s health, while Hers centers on women’s health). The experience is especially appealing to anyone who prefers managing their care digitally. The app goes beyond prescriptions, offering nutrition guidance, recipes from dietitians, habit and sleep trackers, grocery lists and other built-in tools designed to support lifestyle changes alongside medication.

The platform operates on a subscription model, with a fixed monthly fee that includes ongoing provider oversight and medication management.

Insurance Details: Hims & Hers operate as cash-pay services and do not bill insurance directly. All services and prescriptions are paid out of pocket, though HSA and FSA funds may be used for eligible expenses.

Noom carved out its place in the weight-loss world by focusing on behavior change long before medications entered the picture. The platform built its reputation on psychology-based daily lessons that unpack your habits, triggers and patterns around food. In 2023, it expanded into prescription weight-loss medications, adding GLP-1s to the mix while keeping its education-first foundation intact.

The program operates on a monthly subscription model. Standard Noom plans focus on behavior-based coaching, while Noom Med includes access to medical providers for GLP-1 prescriptions when appropriate. Subscriptions include daily lessons, human coaching supported by AI tools and customized plans tailored to your goals, along with meal logging, water tracking and on-demand Noom Move workouts.

Insurance Details: Noom Med charges a monthly program fee and does not directly bill insurance for membership costs. Medication coverage depends on your individual insurance plan, and HSA/FSA funds may be used for eligible expenses.

WeightWatchers has been a household name in weight loss since 1963, but its expansion into the GLP-1 space is more recent. After a rebrand, the company introduced WeightWatchers Clinic, combining its signature Points program with access to GLP-1 medications when appropriate. The idea is to pair the structure and accountability the brand is known for with virtual medical oversight, so medication, nutrition guidance and coaching live in one ecosystem.

The program operates on a monthly membership model, which includes clinician oversight, prescription management and support with labs and prior authorizations. Medication costs are billed separately.

Insurance Details: WeightWatchers Clinic charges a monthly membership fee that is typically not covered by insurance. However, the platform works with many major insurance plans to determine whether your prescribed GLP-1 medication is covered. If approved, you’ll pay your plan’s copay or coinsurance; if not, medication is paid out of pocket.
