North Carolina Telehealth Law Overview
The North Carolina Medical Board's Position Statement 5.1.4 lets a licensee-patient relationship form through synchronous or asynchronous telemedicine without any prior in-person meeting, as long as the standard of care is met, so a North Carolina-licensed physician can evaluate you and prescribe GLP-1 weight-loss medication online.
Key Points
- No prior in-person visit required to establish care by telemedicine (Position Statement 5.1.4)
- Both synchronous and asynchronous telemedicine are permitted when the standard of care is met
- A prescription may not rest on a static online questionnaire alone — the provider must be able to ask follow-up questions and gather history
- The physician must hold a North Carolina license
- The same standard of care applies to telemedicine and in-person care
