New York Telehealth Law Overview
New York recognizes store-and-forward (asynchronous) telehealth under Public Health Law Article 29-G, and its in-person examination requirement applies only to controlled substances, so a New York-licensed physician can evaluate you and prescribe GLP-1 weight-loss medication online. New York is not part of any licensure compact, so the prescriber must hold a full New York license.
Key Points
- No in-person visit required before a telehealth prescription for non-controlled medications like GLP-1s
- Asynchronous store-and-forward telehealth is a recognized modality under Public Health Law Section 2999-cc
- The physician must hold a full New York license — New York is not part of any licensure compact
- New York's in-person examination requirement applies only to controlled substances, which GLP-1s are not
- The same standard of care applies to telehealth and in-person visits
Regulatory References:
