Yes. A chiropractor can refer patients to a licensed telehealth platform for weight management and earn a fixed marketing fee, without doing any clinical work, carrying inventory, prescribing, or handling fulfillment. You are not adding a medical service to your practice. You are sharing a QR code or a personal link, and licensed providers and pharmacies handle everything on the clinical side.
That distinction matters, so here is exactly how it works for a chiropractic office.
Where a referral fits into a chiropractic practice
Chiropractors already talk with patients about posture, mobility, joint load, and daily function. Weight is a topic that comes up naturally in those conversations, and many patients ask where they can get help. Instead of guessing or sending them off with nothing, you can point them to a licensed telehealth platform through a chiropractic partner program.
The key point: you are not diagnosing anyone, recommending a medication, or deciding who qualifies. You are simply making an option visible. When a patient scans your QR code or uses your link and signs up, they are attributed to you. From there, every request is reviewed by a licensed provider, and not everyone qualifies. MedStands is not a medical practice and does not prescribe, so nothing about your scope of practice changes.
What you do and what you never touch
The work is intentionally light. You share a code or link, and that is the extent of your involvement in any patient's care.
Here is what stays entirely off your plate:
- No clinical work. You do not evaluate candidacy, and you do not manage treatment.
- No inventory. Nothing to stock, store, or reorder.
- No prescribing. Licensed providers do the prescribing.
- No fulfillment. Licensed pharmacies handle fulfillment, refills, and shipping.
The business never touches medication at any point. The platform is LegitScript-certified, which means the clinical and dispensing side is handled by vetted, licensed professionals. Your role begins and ends with the referral. If you want a fuller picture of the division of labor, see Who Handles the Prescribing and Shipping in a Referral Program?.
How you get paid
Partners earn a fixed marketing fee for each active referred person, paid to your bank every month for as long as that person keeps actively using the platform. It is set in advance and does not move with the price of anything. To be clear, it is not a commission, not a percentage, and not a share of sales. It is a flat marketing fee agreed to up front.
Because the fee recurs monthly while a referred person stays active, a handful of referrals can turn into a steady, predictable line of income over time rather than a one-time payout. You are paid for introducing people to a service, the same way any marketing arrangement works.
Do you need a medical license or extra staff?
No. Referring patients to telehealth does not require a medical license, and it does not turn your front desk into a call center. You are not providing care, so there is no added clinical liability tied to the referral itself, and there is no paperwork for you to process on a patient's treatment.

Practically, the lift is a QR code at the front desk or on an aftercare sheet, plus a short, honest mention when a patient asks. That is it.
Common questions
Does it cost anything to join?
No. It is free to join. There is no setup fee, no monthly fee, and nothing to buy. You are not purchasing inventory or software, and you are not committing to a franchise. It is a marketing and referral opportunity, not a medical or franchise business.
Do I have to do any of the clinical work?
No. There is no clinical work, no inventory, no prescribing, and no fulfillment on your end. Licensed providers do the prescribing and licensed pharmacies do the fulfillment, refills, and shipping. You share a code or link, and that is your entire responsibility.
Who decides who gets treated?
Licensed providers do. Every request is reviewed by a licensed provider, and not everyone qualifies. You do not evaluate candidacy and cannot influence who is approved. Your referral simply gives a patient the option to apply.
How does the platform know a referral came from me?
Each partner gets a unique QR code and personal link. Anyone who signs up through your code or link is attributed to you, and your monthly marketing fee is tied to that attribution for as long as the person stays active. There is nothing to track manually on your side.
