Head-to-head comparison
Midi Health vs Sesame Care
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
Midi Health is a nationwide 50-state menopause and perimenopause telehealth platform whose weight-management lane prices a compounded GLP-1 and GLP-1/GIP menu dose by dose, by injection or sublingually, without ever naming the molecule.
Marked down on: Never names the molecule: the entire compounded menu is sold as "GLP-1" and "Dual-Action GLP-1/GIP", so you cannot tell what you are being prescribed before the visit
Desk Score
An established national telehealth marketplace with the widest real brand-name GLP-1 access in the ranking — Wegovy (pen and pill), Zepbound, Ozempic and Mounjaro — plus provider-by-provider price transparency.
$149/mo (brand-name) sema · $299/mo (brand-name) tirz · Verified August 2026
Marked down on: A generalist marketplace, not a dedicated weight-loss program — lighter ongoing hand-holding than a specialist desk
Sesame Care takes this head-to-head with the higher Desk Score, 88/100 (B+) against 72/100 (C) for Midi Health. Midi Health still holds its ground where its strengths line up with yours.
