GoodRx Care is the telehealth arm of GoodRx, the same company known for prescription discount coupons. Visits start at $19 with a GoodRx Gold membership ($5.99/month) or $49 without. That makes it one of the cheapest telehealth options on the market. Most competitors charge $75 to $99.
What You Can Use It For
GoodRx Care covers common urgent care conditions: colds, flu, sinus infections, UTIs, allergies, pink eye, and skin issues. They also handle prescription refills and some ongoing care. GoodRx added a weight loss telemedicine subscription at $39/month (introductory), which includes access to GLP-1 medications through a Novo Nordisk partnership.
The Prescription Advantage
If the doctor prescribes medication, you can pair the prescription with a GoodRx discount coupon at the pharmacy. This can save up to 80% off retail prices. No other telehealth service has this built-in connection to prescription savings. You see the doctor and fill the prescription at a discount in the same ecosystem.
The Privacy Concern
GoodRx was fined by the FTC in 2023 for sharing user health data with advertising platforms and displaying a fake HIPAA seal on its telehealth site. Those practices have stopped under the FTC order. But if data privacy is a priority for you, it's worth knowing the history before using the service.
How It Compares
GoodRx Care is the cheapest option for uninsured patients. Teladoc and Amwell charge $75 to $99 but offer 24/7 availability and broader specialist access. MDLIVE charges $89 for urgent care. Doctor On Demand starts at $99 for medical visits but $134 for therapy. If price is your main concern and you don't need specialists, GoodRx Care is hard to beat.
