Asynchronous intake
The vocabulary of getting a claim paid, of FDA enforcement, and of what on-label and off-label really mean.
Definition
A written questionnaire reviewed by a clinician without a live conversation. Legal in many states and faster for everyone. ⚠ Some states require a synchronous visit before a first prescription, so a seller that is async everywhere else may add a call for you — and a seller that never does may not be following your state's rule.
