AUGUST 2, 2026 — RENVA Health today published its first Telehealth Cost Report, a comparison of pricing, cancellation policy, and fee transparency across 33 GLP-1 weight-loss telehealth providers.

The report's central finding: the average advertised starting price across the 33 providers analyzed is $147/month — but the average true monthly cost, once membership fees and required add-ons are factored in, runs $180/month, a $33 gap.

Other findings from the report:

• 13 of 33 providers advertise a "starting" price that only applies with a 3, 6, or 12-month commitment, without disclosing the term length next to the price itself.
• 7 of 33 providers had pricing on their own website that was inconsistent or inaccurate at the time of review and required direct correction during RENVA's research process.
• 20 of 33 providers offer genuine self-service cancellation. The remaining 10 require contacting support directly to cancel.
• 23 of 33 providers publish full pricing without requiring an account or intake form to view it.

"Telehealth pricing is confusing by design," the report states. "The base price and the real price are often two different offers, even when they display identically on a pricing page."

RENVA's research method sources all pricing, policy, and cancellation data directly from each provider's public website — no provider-supplied data is used, and affiliate relationships have zero weight in how providers are scored or ranked. Full methodology is published at renva.health/methodology.

The full report, including a provider-by-provider comparison table, is available at renva.health/reports/glp1-telehealth-cost-report.
