Frequently Asked Questions

Why Does State Matter So Much When It Comes to Medication Availability?

Telehealth laws, state medical board guidelines, and pharmacy compounding regulations vary significantly across state lines. These laws determine where ZipHealth clinicians can prescribe specific medications and where ZipHealth's fulfillment pharmacies are licensed to ship.

Does Living in a Supported State Guarantee Prescription Approval?

No. Residing in an eligible state allows you to apply for care, but a licensed ZipHealth healthcare provider must review your medical history and consultation to ensure treatment is safe and clinically appropriate for you.

If I Move to a New State, Can I Continue My ZipHealth Treatment?

You can only continue treatment if your new state of residence is supported for your specific medication. Updating your address to a new state may require a new clinical review and consultation.

Can I Temporarily Ship My ZipHealth Medication to an Unsupported State?

No. Your ZipHealth medication can only be shipped directly to a physical address within a supported state where you are legally eligible to receive care. This rule applies to new orders, refill shipments, replacement packages, and orders attempted to be rerouted in transit.
