What stands out

Strengths

  • Bills insurance directly and names the carriers: "in-network with most major insurance plans nationwide," listing Blue Cross Blue Shield, Health Net, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Aetna.
  • Publishes an exact cash price if you have no coverage: "Self-pay is $250 initial, $150 follow-up."
  • Takes pre-tax money: "Your HSA or FSA can be used to pay for Midi visits and services."
  • Live video appointments rather than a form: 30 minutes first, 15 after, in all 50 states.
  • Midi says it prescribes "FDA-approved bioidentical hormones, which have been tested for safety," and sets those against "compounded preparations, which are not regulated by the FDA."
  • A prescription can go to your own pharmacy instead of Midi's platform.

Good to know

  • Midi's pricing page says "Medicare is out of network with Midi," and that it cannot accept "Medicaid or Medi-Cal patients at this time."
  • Labs and prescriptions are billed on top of the visit: "The visit price does not include the cost of labs or any prescription medications."
  • Two cancellation clocks apply: two days before a clinical renewal, three business days before a supplement shipment.
  • The terms say: "We do not offer refunds for partially used subscription periods."
  • Custom Rx topicals are cash-pay and sit outside the insurance billing that covers visits.

Our verdict

Is Midi Health worth considering?

Midi is the insurance-first choice in online menopause care. It bills five named commercial carriers, publishes a $250 and $150 self-pay fallback so an uninsured reader can budget before booking, and puts a board-certified clinician on live video in all 50 states. Its hormone-therapy page also takes an unusually clear position on drug status. Look at Midi if you have PPO coverage, or want a published price and a prescription your pharmacy can fill.

A good fit for

  • Women with PPO coverage from Blue Cross Blue Shield, Health Net, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna or Aetna
  • Anyone who wants hormone therapy Midi describes as FDA-approved, filled at their own pharmacy
  • People who want a video appointment, not a questionnaire
  • Uninsured buyers who want the price published before they book

Might not fit if

  • Anyone on Medicare, Medicaid or Medi-Cal — Midi bills commercial plans only
  • People who prefer an asynchronous service with no scheduled visit
  • Anyone who wants one all-in price covering visits, labs and medication

How Midi Health works

  1. Check your plan

    Midi names five in-network carriers. Without coverage, a first visit is $250.

  2. Book online

    Booking takes “under 10 minutes,” and the service is open to adults 18 and over in all 50 states.

  3. Meet a clinician on video

    The first appointment is “First Visit: 30-minutes,” covering symptoms, history and goals.

  4. Get a care plan and prescriptions

    Orders go through Midi’s platform, or to a local pharmacy you contact directly. Any labs are billed separately.

  5. Follow up

    Returning visits run 15 minutes, as often as you need.

Midi Health pricing

Midi publishes both price paths: your plan’s cost-share if it is in-network, a flat fee if it is not. The pricing and insurance page states it plainly: “Self-pay is $250 initial, $150 follow-up.” Figures read September 18, 2026.

Initial visit, self-pay

$250per visit

charged at the visit; no membership fee is named on Midi's pages

  • 30-minute video appointment with a board-certified clinician
  • A written care plan and any prescriptions

The help center repeats it: "the initial consultation costs $250, with subsequent visits at $150 each."

Returning visit, self-pay

$150per visit

charged per appointment

  • 15-minute video check-in
  • Progress review and care-plan adjustments

Patients may follow up "as often as you need."

Visit billed to insurance

Copayper visit, insured

billed to your carrier; you pay deductible, copay or coinsurance

  • In-network with Blue Cross Blue Shield, Health Net, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna and Aetna
  • Patients "pay around $50 out-of-pocket per visit" on average

Midi warns that "Coverage, deductibles, coinsurance, and copays vary by plan," and a deductible can reach the full $250 or $150.

Custom Rx prescription products

From $40per month

cash-pay, ordered after a clinician visit

  • Testosterone Cream from $100 per 90 days; DHEA/Estradiol Cream $90 per 30 days
  • Estriol+ Face Cream $149; Sermorelin $179 per 30 days

Custom Rx products require a visit and are not insurance-covered.

Supplements (shop.joinmidi.com)

$34.99-$124.99per product

one-off or subscription, charged each month on shipment

  • Daily Brain Boost $34.99; Daily Omega-3+ and Creatine+ $49.99
  • Berberine+ and Daily Fiber+ $54.99; Menopause Survival Kit $124.99

Shipping is "$7 flat rate" economy or "$15 flat rate" expedited; free for subscribers.

Our calculation. A self-pay year with one initial visit and two follow-ups is $250 + (2 x $150) = $550 in visit fees. Midi publishes no annual total, and labs and medication sit outside it: “The visit price does not include the cost of labs or any prescription medications.”

No page we read names a membership fee in either direction. Pre-tax money is accepted: “Your HSA or FSA can be used to pay for Midi visits and services.” Government plans are excluded: “Medicare is out of network with Midi,” and Midi is “not able to accept Medicaid or Medi-Cal patients.”

What Midi treats, and what it prescribes

Midi’s menopause page lists what it takes on, from “Hot flashes & night sweats” and “Sleep & insomnia” to “Brain fog & forgetfulness,” “Low sex drive & vaginal dryness,” “Mood swings” and “Bone, muscle, & joint pain.”

Hormone therapy: Midi draws a line other brands blur

The strongest statement on Midi’s hormone-therapy page is about drug status. Midi says it “prescribes FDA-approved bioidentical hormones, which have been tested for safety,” and sets those against “compounded preparations, which are not regulated by the FDA.” It adds that “insurance is more likely to cover the full or partial cost of FDA-approved bioidentical hormones.” Those are Midi’s own claims, and they matter in a market where much of the competition runs on compounded creams.

The distinction is real. A compounded medicine is mixed for one patient and does not hold FDA approval, because the FDA does not review such preparations for safety, effectiveness or quality before they are marketed. An approved drug has been through that review. That tells you which regulatory track your prescription sits on, and whether a drug benefit is likely to touch it.

Custom Rx: twelve priced prescription products

Midi’s store separately sells cash-pay prescription products it calls Custom Rx, each requiring a clinician visit: Testosterone Cream from $100 per 90 days, DHEA/Estradiol Cream $90 per 30 days (actives “DHEA 0.75%, Estradiol .01%”), Low-Dose Naltrexone from $40 a month, Sermorelin $179, and prescription skincare from $58 to $149. Orders are “mailed discreetly to your door.”

One thing to confirm with Midi before ordering: the Custom Rx listing and product pages do not say how those topical hormone creams are prepared, so ask whether a cream is a compounded preparation and which pharmacy makes it.

Supplements

The separate shop sells over-the-counter supplements rather than medicines, from Daily Brain Boost at $34.99 to a Menopause Survival Kit bundle at $124.99, all made “without dairy, gluten, nuts, soy, or added sugars” and “non-GMO,” per the shop.

Who prescribes, and who fills the prescription

Midi’s help center describes the bench as “licensed nurse practitioners (NPs), CNMs (nurse midwives), doctors (MDs), and naturopathic doctors (NDs) who specialize in women’s midlife health,” with care “overseen by menopause doctors.” The clinicians page adds that “All Midi clinicians are board-certified,” trained through an in-house program, “Midi University,” running “50+ courses and weekly lectures on new research.” No external menopause-specific credential is named; if that matters, ask which clinicians hold one.

Corporate and accreditation. The BBB profile names Joanna Strober as chief executive and Dr. Mindy Ellen Goldman among its managers, with a business start date of November 16, 2021. Midi’s press room states the company is “NCQA accredited for Utilization Management and Credentialing” — a process accreditation, not a verdict on treatment.

Pharmacy. Unlike menopause start-ups that fill everything through one in-house partner, Midi’s help center describes two routes: ordering through Midi’s platform, or, in its words, “if you requested your prescription to be sent to your local pharmacy, you should contact them directly for any updates.” A prescription filled where you already shop is one your drug benefit can see.

Consent and governing law. Midi’s terms say you “will be required to review and agree to an informed consent regarding the use of telehealth,” and that the agreement is “governed by the laws of the State of California.”

States, visits, labs and shipping

Where and who. Midi’s menopause page says the service is “Available in all 50 states,” and the process page repeats it. The terms set the floor at people who “are at least eighteen (18) years of age or older.” There is no partial state map to check against.

Visit format. Care is delivered by video: “First Visit: 30-minutes. We’ll dig into your symptoms, health history, and goals,” followed by a “Returning Visit: 15-minutes” to track progress. Booking is quoted at “under 10 minutes.” The service is virtual only, and Midi says a referral is offered if in-person care is needed. Follow-ups come “as often as you need,” with no fixed interval published.

Labs. Clinicians “may order labs to understand the full picture,” naming a “metabolic panel, thyroid testing, and insulin sensitivity markers.” Labs are billed separately, and whether that charge goes to your insurer or is cash-pay is not stated. Ask before the draw: it is the one part of Midi’s pricing not published in dollars.

Shipping. The supplement shop lists “Standard economy shipping: $7 flat rate” and “Expedited shipping: $15 flat rate,” free for subscribers, and “ships to all 50 U.S. states and P.O. Boxes.”

Cancelling, renewals and refunds

Midi’s terms say: “You may cancel a subscription at any time by emailing support@joinmidi.com,” or by phone or online account.

Two deadlines, not one. Clinical subscriptions renew unless you cancel “at least two (2) days before the applicable renewal processing date,” while the separate supplement shop asks you to cancel “at least three (3) business days prior to the shipment date” — two documents for two kinds of purchase, so anyone running both is tracking two clocks.

Refunds on the clinical side. The terms state: “We do not offer refunds for partially used subscription periods,” adding that Midi “may provide refunds on a case-by-case basis” at its discretion. Billing runs until you cancel: your payment method is “automatically charged at regular intervals.”

Refunds on supplements. The shop is more generous on a first order: “If you’re not completely happy with your first purchase, we’ll refund the full amount,” within “30 days of your delivery date.” Returns are not accepted, because “our supplements are considered perishable.”

Missed appointments. No no-show or late-cancellation fee appears in the terms or billing articles, so ask what happens if you miss a visit.

Ratings and public record

Trustpilot, read September 18, 2026: a TrustScore of 4.1 out of 5 from 1,641 reviews, most recent dated September 17, 2026. The spread is 74% five-star and 17% one-star: a positive average with a visible unhappy minority. Trustpilot’s own metric says Midi “demonstrates responsiveness by replying to 93% of negative reviews.”

BBB, read the same day: a rating of B, accredited since March 27, 2024, with 173 complaints across a three-year reporting period and no government-action alert.

Two public records sit alongside those ratings: on February 25, 2026 BBB National Programs’ National Advertising Division published a decision stating that Midi “informed NAD that it had permanently discontinued the challenged claims” in an advertisement about how quickly patients found relief, and a federal civil case filed on March 26, 2025 in the Northern District of California (N.C. et al v. Midi Health, Inc., case 5:25-cv-02848) is open and undecided, its specific allegations not obtainable from an official source.

Midi's own numbers, and where they came from

These are company statements, labeled as such rather than verified counts.

Funding and valuation. In a press release dated February 3, 2026, Midi announced it had “raised $100 million in a Series D financing round led by Goodwater Capital,” adding that “The round values the company at over $1 billion” and describing “nationwide insurance coverage now reaching more than 45 million women today.” A funded company is one more likely to still be billing your insurer next year; it says nothing about treatment.

Clinicians and partners. Midi’s clinicians page claims “550+ BOARD-CERTIFIED CLINICIANS.” That page carries no date, so treat it as current at reading on September 18, 2026. The press room lists work with Mount Sinai Health System (September 2024), Hinge Health (August 2024) and Keck Medicine of USC (June 2024).

What to ask before you book

  • Is my plan in-network, and what is my cost-share for a first visit?
  • If labs are ordered, does the lab bill my insurance, or do I pay cash?
  • Can my prescription go to my usual pharmacy, and will my drug benefit cover it there?
  • For any Custom Rx cream: how is it prepared, and by which pharmacy?

Midi Health FAQ

Is Midi Health legit?

Midi Health is a California telehealth practice with a business start date of November 16, 2021 on its BBB profile, which rates it B and accredited since March 27, 2024.

How much does Midi Health cost a month?

Midi charges per visit, not monthly: “Self-pay is $250 initial, $150 follow-up.” Insured patients “pay around $50 out-of-pocket per visit” on average, though “Coverage, deductibles, coinsurance, and copays vary by plan.” Labs and medication are extra.

Does Midi Health take insurance?

Yes, for commercial plans. Midi says it is “in-network with most PPO plans,” naming Blue Cross Blue Shield, Health Net, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna and Aetna.

Are Midi's hormone medications FDA-approved?

Midi says it “prescribes FDA-approved bioidentical hormones, which have been tested for safety,” contrasting that with “compounded preparations, which are not regulated by the FDA.” That is the company’s own statement. Its Custom Rx creams are separate prescription products, and the store pages do not say how they are prepared.

Can I cancel Midi Health at any time?
