Noom Med vs Mochi Health
$149/mo against $278/mo for tirzepatide. Which is worth it, and for whom.
Updated 2026-09-18
How we are paid: one company on this page — Coreage Rx — pays us a commission if you sign up through our link. It does not buy a better score, a higher position, or the removal of a single criticism. Our rating method and full disclosure are both public.
Both sell tirzepatide. Noom Med costs $149 a month and Mochi Health costs $278, a difference of $129 a month or about $1,548 a year. The other differences matter more than the money if this is your first course.
Noom Med is behaviour change alongside medication. Mochi Health is insurance concierge support. They are not aimed at the same person, and the cheaper one is not automatically the right answer — particularly if this is your first course and you expect a slow titration.
What this means for your titration. Mochi Health holds one price at every dose and Noom Med does not — so this gap widens as you titrate toward a therapeutic dose, exactly when you can least afford a surprise.

The differences that affect treatment

What each programme publishes: Noom Med
- Noom Med listed from $149/month.
- Microdose GLP-1Rx programme listed from $79/month with medication included.
- Programme pairs low-dose medication with biomarker monitoring and coaching.
Where it wins: The coaching is the actual product here and it is well built. Watch for: A $79 microdose programme is not the same treatment as 10 mg tirzepatide. Check the dose before comparing on price.
What each programme publishes: Mochi Health
- Membership $79/month, or about $66/month on longer prepaid terms.
- Prepaid terms listed at $199 for three months, $399 for six and $799 for twelve.
- Compounded semaglutide around $99 and tirzepatide around $199 on published dose ranges.
- Some members report $69/month provider access with $175 per 28 days of compounded semaglutide.
- Holds roughly a 4 to 4.5 star Trustpilot average across approximately 18,000 public reviews.
- Lab work, where recommended, is not included in the membership.
Where it wins: The insurance concierge genuinely pursues coverage rather than defaulting to cash pay. Watch for: Labs are billed separately. Ask what the clinic expects to order before you sign up.

Which suits you
- Pick Noom Med if cost is the binding constraint. Over a year the gap is about $1,548, which is real money for the same class of medication.
- Pick Mochi Health if what it does better matters to you — the insurance concierge genuinely pursues coverage rather than defaulting to cash pay.
- Ask both which pharmacy compounds the medication and whether it is a 503A or 503B facility. Neither publishes it.
The verdict
For most people starting out, Noom Med at $149 a month is the more defensible choice on arithmetic alone. Mochi Health earns its premium only if you will actually use what it does differently. Read the full reviews before deciding: Noom Med and Mochi Health.
