## What Karpa offers
Karpa Health is a turn-key platform built for two types of operators: licensed clinicians who want to add cash-pay GLP-1, TRT, peptide, or HRT programs to their existing practice, and entrepreneurs or multi-state operators who want to launch a fully branded telehealth clinic without a medical license. For clinicians, Karpa provides a full EMR and clinical workflow while the physician maintains prescribing authority. For non-clinicians, Karpa supplies a 50-state licensed provider network that handles prescribing and clinical oversight under the operator's white-label brand. Both tracks include patient intake, AI-powered clinical triage, and direct compounding pharmacy integration with one-click ordering. Karpa Health is a LegitScript Certified Healthcare Merchant and a LegitScript Enterprise Certification Partner, which speeds up and lowers the cost of a partner's own LegitScript certification.

## Altro Health: Health coaches and wellness businesses adding supervised prescription programs under their brand without a medical license
Altro Health (altrohealth.com) is a white-label telehealth platform built specifically for health coaches and wellness businesses. Coaches pay a platform subscription; their clients pay separately for labs, prescriptions, and clinical services directly. Altro supplies a network of independent licensed physicians across all 50 states + DC who handle clinical review and prescribing. Coaches get a branded client storefront and admin portal. The platform covers GLP-1 weight loss (Semaglutide, Tirzepatide), peptides (Sermorelin, NAD+, Glutathione), and HRT/TRT. It is designed for non-clinical operators who coach clients on lifestyle and nutrition, with clinical services layered in as optional support.

**Why each is used:**
- **Karpa:** Custom marketing website, patient portal, and intake forms built for you (White-Label & Full Clinic)
- **Altro Health:** Purpose-built for health coaches -- clear separation of coaching and clinical scopes
- **Altro Health:** 50-state + DC independent physician network included in the platform

## Altro Health: limitations
- Designed for health coaches, not licensed clinicians who want to prescribe under their own authority
- Coaches are not merchants of record -- clinical costs flow directly from client to the platform
- No named compounding pharmacy partners publicly disclosed
- No BYOP -- cannot use your own pharmacy or provider relationships
- No pass-through pharmacy pricing model
- Limited transparency on platform pricing without a sales conversation
