Sesame is a US cash-price telehealth marketplace whose weight-loss subscription connects patients with providers who can prescribe brand-name GLP-1 medications.

What it is

The subscription includes telehealth visits, unlimited messaging and ongoing care from a provider the patient chooses.

Medication is not included in the subscription fee; the page lists cash prices for brand-name GLP-1s such as Wegovy, Zepbound and Foundayo.

The program does not bill insurance, but providers can help with prior authorization if a patient's plan covers medication.

Prescribes: Brand-name, FDA-approved GLP-1s (Wegovy pen and pill, Zepbound, Ozempic, Foundayo); providers on Sesame do not prescribe controlled weight-loss drugs such as phentermine.

What it costs

Subscription, month-to-month (billed every 28 days)$991
Wegovy pill, cash price, lower doses$1491
Zepbound vial, cash pricefrom $2991
