Is the price for the medicine, the visit, or a membership? Is it a starter offer? Ask what a later month costs and what happens when you leave.
A medicine price is not a care total
As of September 26, 2026, drug companies advertised prices mostly around $149 to $499 a month for certain weight and diabetes medicines paid for without insurance.
Some late refills cost more, and the amount supplied for a quoted month differs between products.
These are drug company offers for the medicine, rather than a quote for visits or tests. Ask what your own bill includes, how much medicine it supplies, and when the price changes.

Ask about charges around the medicine
A September 26, 2026 check of several online weight-care services found memberships with medicine billed separately.
A monthly membership is a repeating charge to use the care service.
Ask what it buys: Does it include the first assessment, later visits, or answers to questions? Ask separately about medicine, tests, and delivery. Which charges repeat? Which arise only when a test or visit is needed?
Read the offer's end date
As of September 26, 2026, many cash offers and savings cards carried terms ending December 31, 2026.
When an offer has an end date, ask for the quote that follows it.
It does not predict the price after the offer ends.
Cost question worksheet
What does your quote add up to?
Enter charges from a written quote for the same month, in US dollars. Leave an unknown amount blank. The subtotal adds only the amounts you enter.
This sheet has no send button and does not send or save your entries.
Ask what is included before putting a charge here. An empty price box means the charge is still unknown. Use a zero only if the quote confirms there is no charge.
Add the charges you know. Ask about any empty price boxes.
A question for the person giving the quote
Can you show the expected full bill for a usual month, then explain what can change it? If a test charge is uncertain, keep it marked unknown.
