How to Choose a GLP-1 Telehealth Provider

Apply the checklist to the current CoreAge policy

The updated CoreAge Rx review separates cancellation before approval, non-refundable consultation fees, stopping future renewals and the policy’s 30-day cutoff. These are different questions. Ask for the order stage and applicable fee in writing instead of assuming that an unshipped prescription remains refundable.

Read the current company policy alongside the selected checkout. A starting price or a short delivery headline does not establish the full payment, refund or fulfillment timeline. This site is published by CoreAge Rx; its explanation is a first-party source and does not adjudicate an individual complaint.

The prescriber

1. Is my prescriber licensed in my state? Not 'somewhere in the US'. Yours. This is a legal requirement, not a preference.
2. What is their name and licence number? You are entitled to this, and every state has a free public lookup to verify it.
3. Will an actual clinician review my history, or is this automated? Ask directly. The answer tells you a great deal.
4. Can I speak to them if something goes wrong at 9pm on a Saturday? Ask what the actual escalation path is.

The pharmacy

1. Which pharmacy fills my prescription? A name, not a category. A provider that will not answer this is telling you something.
2. Is it a 503A pharmacy or a 503B outsourcing facility? 503B is held to the tighter federal standard. Both are legitimate; the difference is real — Compounded GLP-1 Medication, Explained.
3. Where does the active ingredient come from? It should be an FDA-registered source.
4. Is there a certificate of analysis? Reputable compounders test potency and sterility and can produce documentation.
5. Is anything added? Some preparations include B12 or amino acids. Nothing sinister about that — you should simply know what you are injecting.

The money

1. What is the total monthly cost, including everything? Ask about consultation fees, shipping, membership fees and supplies separately.
2. Does the price change as my dose increases? This is the big one. Many providers raise the price at every step, so month nine looks nothing like month one. Ask what the highest dose costs, not the lowest — see What GLP-1 Medication Costs in 2026.
3. Am I committing to a term? Three- and six-month prepayments are common. Ask what happens if you need to stop in month two.
4. How do I cancel, and is there a fee? Get this answer before you start, not after.
5. When exactly am I billed? Most billing complaints in this industry are date misunderstandings.

Signals to walk away from

Good signs

• They tell you what the medication cannot do, and who should not take it.
• They publish contraindications rather than burying them.
• They name the pharmacy without being pushed.
• They mention the STEP 4 regain finding before you have paid anything — see Maintenance: Keeping the Weight Off.
• They ask about your other medications and actually read the answer.
• They tell you to keep your own doctor.
• There is a real address and a phone number that a person answers.
