Med spa owners who look up Qualiphy are usually trying to solve one problem: getting a licensed clinician to examine and clear a patient before a treatment such as Botox, fillers, or a weight-loss injection. That's the job Qualiphy was built for. We built Bask for a different job: launching and running a complete telehealth business under your own brand, from the website and checkout to prescribing, pharmacy, and doctors. The two sometimes serve the same customer, which is why people compare them, but they solve different problems.
The short version: if you run a clinic or med spa and need remote good-faith exams before in-person treatments, Qualiphy is built for that step. If you want to sell care online, with patients who buy, get prescribed, and receive treatment at home under your brand, that's what we built Bask to do.
If you're a med spa considering adding at-home care, our guide to opening a med spa that also treats patients at home explains how the two models fit together.

Two Products for Two Different Moments
A good-faith exam happens before treatment. In many states, a licensed clinician must evaluate a patient before a medical aesthetic procedure, and treatments like injectables are medical practice, not a spa service. The Medical Board of California, for example, notes that medical spas offering medical procedures must be physician-owned and that nurses and physician assistants performing those procedures must be properly supervised. Remote exams help clinics meet that requirement without keeping a clinician on site all day.
That's Qualiphy's lane. The clinic stays the business, the treatment still happens in the clinic, and Qualiphy supplies the clinician who clears the patient.
A telehealth brand works the other way around. The online experience is the business. Patients find you, complete an intake, see or message a clinician, get a prescription if it's appropriate, and receive treatment at home, often on a subscription. That whole chain is what Bask runs, which is why we put the questionnaire and storefront builder, prescribing, pharmacy fulfillment, and payments in one platform.
Not every "good faith" term means the same thing. A good faith exam is a clinical evaluation before treatment. A Good Faith Estimate is a cost estimate that federal rules require for self-pay patients. A telehealth business may need to handle both.
What Qualiphy Does Well
Qualiphy is focused, and that focus is its strength. According to its June 2025 announcement, the Beverly Hills-based company offers white-labeled good faith exams across the U.S. for medical spas, IV therapy clinics, and aesthetic and wellness clinics. It automates intake, compliance review, and provider assignment, supports both live video and form-based exams, and keeps providers available seven days a week, holidays included.
The same announcement says Qualiphy handles patient-specific orders and prescription routing to pharmacies, and that exam records can go to its provider portal or straight into a clinic's EMR. Its website also lists GLP-1 prescribing for weight management and a pay-as-you-go model with no subscription fee. For a busy med spa that needs clearances without hiring more staff, that's a practical setup.
Where the Platforms Part Ways
Who Owns the Patient Relationship
With an exam service, the clinic owns the relationship, and the exam provider supports one step. On Bask, your brand owns the full online experience: the website, intake, patient portal, and follow-up. Patients deal with your brand from the first click to the refill.
Where the Revenue Comes From
A clinic using exam services earns its revenue from the in-person treatment. A telehealth brand earns it online, usually through subscriptions and refills. That's why Bask includes payment processing and order management, so a refill, a subscription renewal, and a prescription stay connected in one system.
What Happens After the Prescription
Both platforms can route prescriptions, but Bask is built around what comes next for a brand that ships treatment: pharmacy fulfillment across the U.S., custom compounded product options, refills, and order tracking. If you're planning a weight-loss program, the FDA has published its concerns about unapproved GLP-1 drugs, so where your medication comes from matters as much as who prescribes it. Our guide to what a GLP-1 telehealth platform needs to get right covers the details.
How Far the Program Can Grow
An exam service grows with your clinic's appointment book. A telehealth brand can grow beyond your city. Every Bask plan includes integrated doctor groups, so you can offer care in more states without recruiting and licensing clinicians yourself; enterprise customers can also bring their own clinical network when they want full ownership of the provider relationship.
Can a Med Spa Use Both?
Yes, and some will. A med spa might keep using an exam service for in-clinic treatments and launch an at-home program, such as weight management or prescription skincare, as a separate telehealth brand. The two don't compete for the same step. The exam service clears patients for treatments in your chair, and a platform like Bask runs the online side of the business, where patients buy, get treated, and reorder from home.
Which One Fits
Qualiphy is a strong fit if your business is a clinic, your revenue comes from in-person treatments, and you need dependable remote exams before those treatments.
Bask is the stronger fit if you want to build a telehealth brand: your own storefront and intake, prescribing, pharmacy, payments, and clinicians already working together, with a launch measured in days. More than 250 U.S. telehealth companies run on Bask, and the platform has processed over 10.5 million orders and more than $1 billion in transactions. You can compare what each plan includes when you're ready.
FAQs
What is Qualiphy?
Qualiphy is a telehealth company based in Beverly Hills, California, that provides remote good faith exams and clinical clearances for medical spas, IV therapy clinics, and aesthetic and wellness clinics. It also offers prescription routing and GLP-1 prescribing for weight management.
Is Qualiphy legit?
Qualiphy operates as Qualiphy PC and displays LegitScript certification on its website. As with any clinical partner, check that its providers are licensed in the states where your patients are, and review its agreement, documentation, and insurance before you sign.
What is a good faith exam?
A good faith exam is an evaluation by a licensed clinician, such as a physician, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant, before a medical treatment like an injectable. State rules decide who can perform it and when it's required.
Can a med spa sell prescription treatments online?
Yes, but online sales make it a telehealth business with its own requirements for licensed clinicians in each patient's state, prescribing, pharmacy sourcing, and advertising rules. Many med spas launch a separate online brand for at-home programs.
Do we have to stop using Qualiphy if we launch on Bask?
No. The two cover different parts of the business. You can keep an exam service for in-clinic treatments while Bask runs your online brand, intake, prescribing, pharmacy, and payments.
The Bottom Line
Qualiphy helps clinics clear patients for in-person treatments. We built Bask for businesses that want the whole patient journey online, under their own brand, with clinicians, pharmacy, and payments already connected. If your next step is an at-home program rather than another treatment room, that's where Bask fits.
