State coverage
Our service area covers 49 states (every U.S. state except California), and because telemedicine falls under state law, you need to be physically located in one of them while your visit happens.
Telemedicine law changes at each state line. For that reason, only a physician holding a license for your current location can complete your visit. The 49 states listed here, every U.S. state except California, are where we can accept patients.
We cannot accept patients located in the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico or any other U.S. territory. Shipping is limited to addresses inside the United States. Your intake confirms your location, and that step comes before you pay for any medication.
Not available in California.
Serving 49 states
Whoever completes your visit must be a physician licensed for your location. LocumTele (opens in a new tab) confirms that the physician's license is valid there before they open your file. How we check physician licenses
Peoples First Rx operates in every state on the list, but an individual medication may be offered in fewer. States regulate medicines in their own ways, and the dispensing pharmacy has to be authorized to dispense into your state. You will find out during the intake if a treatment is unavailable where you live, and that happens before you pay for any medication.
Visits run asynchronously in writing, without any video or phone appointment. A physician licensed in your state reads every answer in your structured medical intake, then decides whether a prescription is appropriate. If your physician wants more information or decides you should be examined in person, you are told through the platform and no prescription is written.
Your intake opens by recording your state. Three things depend on that answer: the physicians allowed to review your visit, the treatments open to you and whether your address is one the pharmacy can ship to. The delivery address you give must be in the state you were in during the visit.
Please update your location with us before you place another order. After a move, any new order has to be reviewed by a physician licensed in your new state, and if we do not serve that state, we would be unable to treat you there.
You must be in the United States to use our services. We deliver only to U.S. addresses and cannot send an order to a package-forwarding or freight-forwarding service.
Have a question about your own state? Before your visit starts, reach us at support@peoplesfirstrx.com or +1 (877) 908-1485 and patient support will confirm it. For the fuller picture, see the FAQ, our Telemedicine Consent and the Shipping Policy.

Expect an occasional note on treatments we add, when physicians are available and what online care looks like here. You won't get spam, and a single click takes you off the list.
All set. The next update goes to when we have something to say.
