In addition to Wegovy and Ozempic, the GLP-1 class includes Eli Lilly's highly popular weight loss drug Zepbound and diabetes treatment Mounjaro. VanGilder signed up nearly four years ago and started taking the weekly diabetes injection Ozempic specifically for weight loss. The big difference between Calibrate and prior weight loss efforts, VanGilder said, is that she doesn't feel like she's dieting. Calibrate is one of the only companies to regularly release reports detailing the results of its weight loss program. The federal Medicare program by law can't cover weight loss drugs unless the prescription is for another approved health benefit, such as diabetes or cardiovascular health.

Digital pharmacy startup Hims & Hers Health is introducing access to compounded GLP-1 weight loss injections, the company announced Monday. The company, which offers a range of direct-to-consumer treatments for conditions like erectile dysfunction and hair loss, launched a weight loss program in December. But GLP-1 medications — the class of drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy that have skyrocketed in popularity — were not previously offered as part of that program. Customers can access the compounded GLP-1 medications via a prescription from a licensed healthcare providers on the Hims & Hers platform. The company's oral medication kits start at $79 a month, and its compounded GLP-1 injections will start at $199 a month.

When Hims & Hers launches its new weight-loss program, the digital-health company won't be joining in on the Ozempic craze, its CEO, Andrew Dudum, said. While pricey drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy have exploded in popularity this year for their potential to help people lose weight, Hims & Hers plans to offer cheaper generic medications for weight loss, at least initially. Ro's weight-loss program was fueling fast growth for the startup this year, but some patients struggled with insurance denials and delays in communication with Ro. Dudum said during the company's third-quarter earnings call that Hims & Hers expected weight management to be "an extraordinarily valuable category." Next year, in addition to launching its weight-loss program, the company plans to expand its new AI engine, which it's been beta testing in its psychiatry patients.

'As startups dive into prescribing hot new weight loss drugs, Hims & Hers is taking a backseat. Its CEO said Hims wants to offer GLP-1s for weight loss, but thinks it's too early. He cited challenges in the young market like insurers refusing to cover GLP-1s and drug shortages. After Hims & Hers' first profitable quarter ever, the startup is thinking about getting in on telehealth's weight-loss craze. An 'inconsistent' supply chainExploding demand for the new weight-loss drugs has also resulted in shortages, which affect all patients prescribed GLP-1s, not just those using the drugs for weight loss.
In the past two years, highly funded startups have tried to disrupt mental-health care. The startups said they wanted to help solve the industry's biggest problems: Mental-health care is too expensive, and there isn't enough of it to go around. Talkspace's priority is now its division that sells mental-health care to employers, which pay recurring fees for employee access. Startups tackling more serious mental-health conditions are working with health plansThere's also a rising crop of mental-health companies tackling the costliest mental-health conditions, something the direct-to-consumer firms tend to shy away from. About half of Bicycle's patients pay with their insurance, a number he's looking to increase.
