What stands out

• States explicitly that it only prescribes FDA-approved medications and never uses compounded versions. Very few providers in this directory commit to that in writing.
• Backed by a major insurer group, so the clinical governance is of a different kind from independent telehealth startups.
• No cash pricing published — the model assumes coverage.

Questions to ask before you pay

These are things we could not settle from published pages, or that we think are easy to misread. Get answers in writing.

• Check whether your plan includes MDLIVE and what the weight programme costs under it.
• If your plan excludes weight loss drugs, ask what the self-pay route looks like.
