Short answer: many telehealth weight‑loss and primary‑care services will evaluate you for a GLP‑1 (semaglutide) and arrange home delivery — but not all will specifically prescribe the brand-name Wegovy (manufactured by Novo Nordisk) because of cost and insurance/authorization requirements. Below are well‑known telehealth providers that commonly prescribe semaglutide/Wegovy or coordinate with specialty pharmacies to ship injectables to your door. Availability varies by state and by clinical eligibility.
Examples (check each site for “Wegovy/semaglutide” availability):
-
Ro (ro.co) — Ro’s weight‑loss program evaluates patients for GLP‑1s and coordinates prescriptions and home delivery through pharmacy partners. Good for a dedicated program and ongoing follow‑up.
-
Hims & Hers (hims.com / hers.com) — Offers telehealth weight‑loss visits and prescribes GLP‑1 medications; they arrange fulfillment through partner pharmacies and support shipment to your home.
-
PlushCare (plushcare.com) — Primary‑care telehealth that provides weight‑loss medication visits; they work with local/specialty pharmacies to fill and ship prescriptions.
-
Form Health (form.com / sometimes “Form by Ro”) — A telehealth service focused on obesity care that routinely prescribes GLP‑1s and coordinates specialty pharmacy dispensing and delivery.
-
One Medical (onemedical.com) — Primary‑care + virtual care; in markets where they operate they can prescribe GLP‑1s and help with prior authorization and specialty pharmacy shipping.
-
GoodRx Care / GoodRx (goodrx.com) — GoodRx’s telehealth/doctor network can write semaglutide prescriptions and GoodRx often shows pharmacy options (and coupons) for home delivery.
Also note: brand‑name Wegovy is frequently dispensed by specialty pharmacies (Accredo, Optum Specialty, CuraScript/Distribucare, etc.) — telehealth providers typically coordinate with those pharmacies when Wegovy is prescribed.
Important caveats:
- Many providers will prescribe the active drug (semaglutide) as Ozempic or off‑label options rather than Wegovy because of cost/coverage.
- Insurance coverage, prior authorization, and state laws affect whether a clinician will prescribe Wegovy and which pharmacy they use.
- You must have a clinical evaluation (medical history, sometimes labs) before a prescription is made.
