How to use this library

Make the decision reviewable.

Each guide starts with a direct answer, works through the operational tradeoffs and ends with a worksheet you can take to a vendor, your clinical lead or healthcare counsel. Templates are planning tools. Numerical examples, where used, are labeled assumptions.

Prepared and source-checked October 10, 2026. Published by Telehealth Launch Team, with no claim of independent clinical or legal review. Primary sources are linked on each guide. Provider descriptions are attributed to their own public material; an unknown detail means it still needs confirmation.

Telehealth Launch Team provides an operating team above the platform and vendors you select. The homepage's $30,000 minimum is your month-one Meta and Google advertising budget. Setup pricing, ongoing fees and exit terms require a written quote and contract review.
