Where Mochi Health pulls ahead
01
Live care, not just an intake form
Direct Meds approves you from an online assessment and follows up by message. Mochi Health includes unlimited 1-on-1 video visits with a licensed provider, so your plan gets adjusted by a human as you go.
02
Your insurance can carry the cost
Covered with Mochi is $17 a month billed annually ($199 a year), and your doctor visits are billed in-network with copays typically $0 to $30. Direct Meds is cash pay only and does not bill insurance.
03
A registered dietitian, included
Registered-dietitian visits are $0 on every Mochi plan, so the food and habit side of treatment gets the same attention as the prescription. Direct Meds includes nurse check-ins, not dietitian appointments.
04
Month to month, no prepay
Your first month is free on the 1-month plan and you can stop any time. Direct Meds' lowest rates only apply if you buy a 90, 180, or 360-day supply before you start.
