As interest in GLP-1 medications continues to grow, telehealth has expanded access to medical weight-loss care for many individuals. At the same time, healthcare experts have emphasized the importance of appropriate medical evaluation, patient education, ongoing clinical monitoring, and informed decision-making when beginning any prescription treatment.
A study published in JAMA evaluating 49 telehealth websites found that most would prescribe a GLP-1 medication to a fictional patient who met eligibility criteria, while relatively few required direct communication through a phone or video visit before prescribing. The findings highlight how telehealth programs can differ in their clinical evaluation processes and underscore the importance of understanding how care is delivered before starting treatment.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has also issued communications regarding compounded GLP-1 medications, including reports of dosing errors and warning letters addressing false or misleading advertising by some companies. These developments reinforce the value of asking thoughtful questions about medication sourcing, clinical oversight, and follow-up care.
Created by registered nurse Anthony Colón, the guide is organized around ten practical questions that help readers evaluate telehealth programs, understand what comprehensive medical care may include, and recognize the importance of ongoing communication with qualified healthcare professionals.
Topics covered include:
-Provider qualifications and licensing
-Medical history evaluation
-Medication sourcing
-Follow-up care
-Side effect management
-Treatment costs
-Health monitoring
-Individualized treatment planning
-Long-term weight management
-Informed healthcare decision-making
With more than 25 years of healthcare experience—and after personally losing approximately 165 pounds—Colón created the guide to help people better understand their options while emphasizing education rather than promotion.
“Healthcare decisions are some of the most important decisions we make,” said Colón. “My goal is to help people feel informed, ask better questions, and work collaboratively with qualified healthcare professionals to choose the approach that’s right for them.”
The guide is part of a growing educational library available through AskAnthonyRN.com, which provides evidence-based resources covering medical weight loss, GLP-1 medications, telehealth, nutrition, metabolic health, and healthy lifestyle practices.
