Dean Olson is the founder of GLP-1 Cost Finder (glp1costfinder.com), an independent comparison tool that tracks real-time pricing across major GLP-1 telehealth providers. He maintains a monthly GLP-1 Price Index that monitors cost trends across platforms including Hims, Ro, Noom Med, LillyDirect, and emerging compounded medication providers. His research covers self-pay pricing, insurance coverage gaps, Medicare eligibility changes, and the rapidly shifting landscape of weight-loss medication access in the United States. Dean brings a consumer-advocacy perspective to GLP-1 pricing transparency, helping patients navigate the complex and often opaque cost structures of telehealth weight-loss programs.
