Good-faith examination in Indiana
Botox and fillers are legend (prescription) drugs, so a valid prescriber and a lawful prescribing relationship are required.
A prescriber may issue a prescription without a prior in-person exam only if the applicable standard of care is satisfied, the prescription is within the prescriber’s scope, and a valid provider-patient relationship has been established — including identity/location verification, informed consent, a medical history sufficient to establish a diagnosis, and discussion of the diagnosis and risks/benefits.
