I want to move my Ozempic care from my doctor to a telehealth service. Which one?

Short answer: pick a telehealth provider that matches why you take Ozempic (type 2 diabetes vs. weight management), that is licensed in your state, will manage GLP‑1 therapy long‑term, coordinates labs, and accepts your insurance (if that matters). Good, commonly used options to consider:

• One Medical — primary‑care focused, offers ongoing telehealth + in‑person visits, coordinates labs and refills, works with many insurers. Good if you want continuity and broad care beyond just prescriptions.

• Onduo (Verily/Sanofi) — diabetes‑specific virtual care program with coaching and specialist support. Good if your main goal is diabetes management and you want a multidisciplinary team.

• PlushCare — fast access to primary‑care doctors and ongoing follow‑ups; commonly used to continue prescriptions and coordinate labs. Often convenient for prescription transfers and refills.

• Teladoc / Amwell — large national telehealth platforms with primary‑care and specialist visits; useful if you want broad access and the potential to see endocrinology virtually.

• Ro or Hims & Hers — consumer-facing weight‑management programs that have introduced GLP‑1 prescribing services and medication delivery. Consider these only if you’re using semaglutide specifically for weight loss and want a programized approach.

What to check before switching

• Will they prescribe/continue semaglutide (Ozempic) for your indication and dose? Some telehealth services limit GLP‑1s or prefer alternative meds.
• Are they licensed to treat patients in your state?
• Do they accept your insurance or will you pay cash? Will they support prior authorizations/refills?
• How will they handle labs, A1c monitoring, or other follow‑up (local labs, orders, CGM)?
• How long is the follow‑up cadence and can you reach a clinician between visits?

How to switch (practical steps)

1. Get copies of your recent medical records: diagnosis, last A1c, labs, current dose, and any notes about side effects or dose escalation. Your current doctor can send these to the new provider.
2. Contact the telehealth service and confirm they will continue your current regimen and what documentation they need.
3. Ask how they handle prescriptions (e‑prescribe to your local pharmacy or ship meds).
4. Set up an initial visit and arrange any needed labs before or shortly after the first prescription.

If you want, tell me:

• Are you using Ozempic for diabetes or weight loss?
• Which state you live in and whether you need in‑network insurance coverage? I can then recommend the single best fit and give links/next steps.
