Where they actually differ
- They bill on different clocks. MaxLife charges every calendar month and PreventiveMD charges once a year. That alone changes what a “month” costs, which is the whole reason this index recomputes every price.
How we know
Both figures were read on the seller’s own site and recomputed over a 30.4375-day calendar month from the charge and the billing period it covers. Neither is a seller’s own “/mo”. The full working for each — the charge, the period, the arithmetic and the date it was read — is on its own page: MaxLife and PreventiveMD. The method is set out in how we verify.
