Upfront pricing
Your monthly price depends on the program and dose your doctor prescribes. The price you see is the whole price — no membership fees, shipping fees, or added taxes. Each shipment covers approximately 9–10 weeks, depending on the medication, with the cost billed monthly; once a requested refill is sent to the pharmacy, you're committed through that coverage period. HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
