Prescriptions available only for existing clients with a prior in-person VCPR. Controlled substances excluded.
Federal rule (all states): Controlled substances cannot be prescribed via telehealth under the Ryan Haight Act. This applies regardless of state law.
No separate telehealth license is required in Michigan. Your existing state veterinary license covers telehealth consultations, provided you comply with Michigan's telehealth regulations.
You can only practice telehealth in states where you hold an active veterinary license. If you're licensed in multiple states, Pawsitive lets you set all of them on your profile and clients see your licensed states before booking.
Pawsitive's booking flow is built around state telehealth law. Clients in Michigan see the correct consent language and service tier before booking. You set your own rate — we never take a cut of your consultations.
Apply in 3 minutes. Once your license is verified (usually same day), you connect your bank via Stripe and your booking page goes live. Most vets are seeing clients within 24 hours.
