Pennsylvania Telehealth Law Overview
Pennsylvania's Act 42 of 2024 formally recognizes telemedicine — including asynchronous care — under the same standard of care as an in-person visit. Pennsylvania imposes no in-person visit requirement for non-controlled prescriptions, so a Pennsylvania-licensed physician can evaluate you and prescribe GLP-1 weight-loss medication online.
Key Points
- No in-person visit required before a telehealth prescription for non-controlled medications like GLP-1s
- Physicians must hold a Pennsylvania license
- Act 42 of 2024 defines telemedicine to include asynchronous interactions
- Telemedicine must meet the same standard of care as in-person care
- GLP-1 medications are not controlled substances, so controlled-substance restrictions do not apply
