Telehealth
Healthcare delivered via video, phone, or async messaging. Telehealth platforms now prescribe GLP-1s, TRT, ED medications, and hair loss treatments.
Fact-checked 12 May 2026Plain-English Reference
Telehealth covers any clinical service rendered remotely — synchronous (video/phone) or asynchronous (intake forms reviewed by a clinician). State licensure rules require the prescribing clinician to be licensed in the patient's state of residence; not all telehealth platforms can operate in all 50 states.
