Best for: People who want labs, coaching and a clinician bundled into one price, and who value knowing exactly which company, medical group and pharmacies stand behind their care.

MatchScript's take: Elara costs more than a bare prescription, but quarterly labs and a coach every three weeks are genuinely included — budget about $270 a month for semaglutide.

The factor breakdown

Elara Health and Wellness on the six Match Score factors — the same sub-scores the quiz reweights to your priorities. See the methodology.

Budget Fit43/100

$249 every 4 weeks is about $270 a calendar month, in the $251–300 band; the lower figures require prepaying up to a year, for 43.

Speed to Start62/100

A clinician licensed in your state reviews the intake and medication typically ships within a week, but the states served are not published, for 62.

Formulary Match77/100

Compounded semaglutide injections, a semaglutide tablet and compounded tirzepatide; no brand-name option.

Support Level90/100

Quarterly labs reviewed with a clinician, a certified coach every three weeks and a care team, though support hours are weekdays only.

Flexibility76/100

No cancellation fee on the 4-week plan; prepaid plans are reconciled at the shorter-plan rate if you leave early.

Transparency90/100

Prices for every plan length, the operating company, the medical group and four pharmacies are all published.

What we found on their site

Read on Elara Health and Wellness's own website in October 2026. Quoted text is theirs.

  • The program page says "The injection stays $249 every 4 weeks and the tablet $279. Prepay for 12, 24 or 52 weeks to bring it down, to as low as $179 and $209."
  • Its refund policy reads "4-week plans: There is no cancellation fee," and explains that prepaid plans ended early are "recalculated at the applicable shorter-plan rate, with no additional exit penalty."
  • The footer states "Elara Health and Wellness is operated by JTE Medical, LLC. Clinical services are provided by OpenLoop Healthcare Partners, PC."

What we like

  • Quarterly metabolic labs at Quest or Labcorp and a certified health coach every three weeks are included in the price
  • Names everyone involved: operated by JTE Medical, LLC, with clinical care from OpenLoop Healthcare Partners, PC
  • Names four state-licensed pharmacies — RedRock Pharmacy, Health Warehouse, Precision Compounding Pharmacy and Triad Rx
  • The same price at every dose, with injectable semaglutide, a semaglutide tablet and tirzepatide
  • No cancellation fee on the 4-week plan, and you are not charged if treatment is not approved

The caveats

  • Billed every 4 weeks, so $249 for semaglutide works out to about $270 per calendar month and $339 for tirzepatide to about $367
  • The "from $179" headline needs 52 weeks prepaid; leaving a prepaid plan early recalculates your months at the shorter-plan rate
  • Support is only Monday to Friday, 9 to 5 Eastern
  • The states it serves are not listed; availability depends on your state
  • A billing period is nonrefundable once its medication ships, and medication typically ships within a week of approval

Elara Health and Wellness, answered

Is Elara Health and Wellness legit?

Elara Health and Wellness is a real, operating GLP-1 telehealth program. LegitScript certification is the third-party check worth asking for — look for the seal on their site and confirm your prescriber is US-licensed at intake. Like most programs here it dispenses compounded GLP-1s, which are made by a licensed pharmacy but aren't FDA-approved.

How much does Elara Health and Wellness cost?

Elara Health and Wellness lists compounded semaglutide from $270/mo (billed every 4 weeks) and tirzepatide from $367/mo (billed every 4 weeks) — above our category median of $190/mo. These are the provider's public figures at our last review; confirm on their site, since some teaser tiers step up after month one.

Does Elara Health and Wellness ship to my state?

Elara Health and Wellness doesn't publish a full state list, so confirm your state is covered during intake before you pay.

Elara Health and Wellness vs Oak — which should I pick?

They score within a few points of each other: Elara Health and Wellness at 73/100 and Oak at 74/100, so neither wins on the headline number. Elara Health and Wellness is the better fit for people who want labs, coaching and a clinician bundled into one price, and who value knowing exactly which company, medical group and pharmacies stand behind their care. Oak suits people who want compounded and brand-name options under one roof and a quick, video-free start, and who will confirm the exact price for their medication at checkout. Run the quiz and the weighting shifts to whichever of those matters more to you.

Pricing & state data come from Elara Health and Wellness's public site and our master provider matrix. The Match Score and its sub-scores are our editorial judgment per the methodology.

Verdict · Grade C · 73/100

Elara Health and Wellness sells a fuller program than most compounded GLP-1 services. For $249 every 4 weeks (about $270 a month) you get compounded semaglutide, a clinician from OpenLoop's physician-led team, quarterly metabolic labs at Quest or Labcorp, and a health coach call every three weeks; tirzepatide is $339 every 4 weeks and a semaglutide tablet $279. Prepaying up to 52 weeks lowers the rate to as little as $179. The company names its operator, its medical group and all four pharmacies, which few competitors do. It suits someone who wants structure and lab monitoring, not just a vial. The downsides are price, weekday-only support, an unpublished state list and no refund once a month's medication ships. Bottom line — good value if you will actually use the labs and coaching.
