Round by round
We scored both programs on the four factors in our methodology — value, support, medications and transparency. MEDVi takes 2, WellMedr takes 1, with 1 even. Here's how each shook out.
Value
What you get for the price — not just the lowest sticker. A premium program that includes FDA-approved medication, insurance help and real support can be good value. WellMedr scores 9.4 to 7.8 — clearly ahead.
Support
Real clinician access, coaching and follow-up — video visits and a care team score higher than async-only. MEDVi scores 8.0 to 7.8 — just ahead.
Medications
Medication options and legitimacy — FDA-approved branded (Wegovy, Zepbound) rates above compounded-only, and breadth and flexibility add points. Evenly matched at about 8.4.
Transparency
How clearly and publicly pricing, terms and availability are stated — plus track record and any regulatory red flags. MEDVi scores 8.4 to 6.8 — clearly ahead.
Where they differ most
The clearest daylight is in value, where WellMedr leads 9.4 to 7.8 and transparency, where MEDVi leads 8.4 to 6.8. On price, WellMedr starts lower ($49 vs $179 per month).
Pricing: MEDVi vs WellMedr
WellMedr has the lower advertised starting price — $49/mo vs $179/mo for MEDVi. But read the fine print: MEDVi is all-in, includes medication and WellMedr is all-in, includes medication, and the cheapest rates often need a prepaid multi-month plan — so compare the real all-in cost at your maintenance dose, not the headline. We unpack how these plans are structured in how much compounded semaglutide costs.
MEDVi: On 12-month prepay; month-to-month is $299/mo; tirzepatide higher (as of 2026, health.usnews.com). WellMedr: Lowest rate on 12-month prepay; month-to-month advertised at $88/mo; tirzepatide from ~$89/mo (as of Sep 2026, exploretreatments.com).
