Counsel Health: what it costs and how it works

Counsel Health is one of five independent telehealth companies Eli Lilly lists on its own site for obesity care, and it is the newest: Lilly’s panel showed four options on 26 August 2026 and five on 30 August 2026. It charges $29 a visit, with an annual membership available, and prescribes Zepbound and Foundayo. It states that it does not offer compounded medication. Medication and labs are billed separately, and labs are about $18 in most states and $43 in New York and New Jersey.
