Compliance & Legal Clarifications

How do you ensure compliance with Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS) and Stark Law? 

Asher Med is strictly a software and marketing platform connecting patients to independent

licensed medical providers.

We:

● Do not employ or contract physicians for medical referrals.

● Do not control clinical decisions or influence prescription choices.

● Do not compensate providers based on referral volume or patient outcomes.

Our medical providers charge a flat consultation fee ($30 for a 3-month clearance, $20 for a

1-month clearance), independent of patient volume or outcomes, ensuring full compliance.

Is collecting payment for medical services considered illegal or fee-splitting?

No. When you collect payment, it's for a comprehensive program that includes clearly

defined non-medical services (yours) and medical services (fulfilled independently by licensed

providers). Our structured agreements clearly outline fixed fees for medical services, eliminating

any potential for fee-splitting and ensuring regulatory compliance.

Does Asher Med directly provide medical services or employ medical personnel?

No. Asher Med is not a medical provider and does not employ any medical personnel. We

provide a software platform connecting your clients directly with independent, licensed medical

providers in all 50 states who handle all clinical responsibilities independently from Asher Med.

How do you ensure compliance with the Corporate Practice of Medicine (CPOM)?

Asher Med strictly functions as a software platform facilitating communication between your

clients and independent, licensed medical providers. All medical decisions, treatments, and

clinical care are solely provided by these licensed professionals, maintaining clear separation

between clinical decisions and non-clinical, administrative roles.

Financial Structure & Payments

What fee's are included to get started?

One-time onboarding fee: $1,997

Monthly software subscription: $297/month (Waived Until 2026!)

How do payments work between my clients, me, and Asher Med?

You set and directly collect payments from your clients. Separately, Asher Med charges you

fixed administrative fees and medication costs (set by independent third-party pharmacies),

which allows you to keep the difference as your profit.

Are these fees refundable?

No. The onboarding and monthly fees are non-refundable.

Financial Structure & Payments

How are medication prices set?

Medication pricing is set solely by independent third-party pharmacies integrated through the

Asher Med platform. Prices are subject to change based on pharmacy discretion. Asher Med

does not directly supply or price medications.

Are medications refundable after orders have been processed?

No. Once medications are dispensed by pharmacies, they cannot be returned or refunded.

What types of compounded medications do you currently offer?

Currently, we offer:

Semaglutide (anticipated transition to Semaglutide/B12 in May)

Tirzepatide with B3

NAD, Sermorelin, B12, and others coming May 2025

* Please note: Due to recent legislation and ongoing litigation involving Novo Nordisk and Eli

Lilly, compound formulations may adjust periodically to maintain compliance. You'll be notified

promptly of any such changes.

Which pharmacies do you use to fulfill prescriptions?

We have a network of certified compounding pharmacies (503A and/or 503B) integrated

directly into our software. The specific pharmacy selected may vary based on the patient’s

location, medication availability, and delivery speed.

Am I at risk with the recent legal challenges surrounding GLP-1 medications?

No. As of now, prescribing and compounding these medications remain legal. While

compounding pharmacies themselves might face litigation from pharmaceutical companies,

such litigation does not impact non-medical businesses like yours or Asher Med.

What happens if GLP-1's can no longer be prescribed?

Although unlikely, if this occurs, Asher Med is already positioned with leading compounding

pharmacies to ensure continuous access to effective alternative peptides and hormone

therapies. New peptides, potentially even more effective than Semaglutide or Tirzepatide, are

constantly being introduced.

Patient Management & Clinical Care

Who handles clinical questions or patient care?

All clinical care, patient questions, and medication decisions are managed independently by

licensed healthcare providers accessible via the Asher Med software.

Can clients pause or adjust their medication treatments?

Yes. Treatment modifications or pauses are determined exclusively by your client's assigned

independent licensed healthcare provider.

Revenue & Profitability

How do I generate profit as an Affiliate/Partner?

You directly bill your clients at rates you determine. Separately, Asher Med charges you

fixed administrative fees and medication costs. Your profit is the difference between what your

clients pay you and your costs from Asher Med.

What if a client does not pay after medication orders have been placed?

Affiliate/Partners are financially responsible for all medication and administrative fees once

ordered. Establishing clear upfront payment terms with your clients is recommended.

Launch & Operational Details

How quickly can I launch the program at my business?

Affiliate/Partners can launch the program in less than 48 hours from signing up, enabling

rapid implementation and profitability.

What support and training will I receive upon joining?

As an Affiliate/Partner, you get immediate access to:

● GLP-1 Partner Certification Course: Comprehensive education on effectively

marketing and positioning the program.

● Partner Portal: Client management, billing tracking, and medication pricing

transparency.

● Affiliate/Partner Community: Resources, community support, and live weekly training

calls.

How do I track patient statuses and medication costs?

All patient details, medication costs, and payment statuses are tracked transparently via

your dedicated Affiliate/Partner Portal.

Data Security & Compliance

Is patient information securely handled and HIPAA-compliant?

Yes. All patient information and communication via the Asher Med software are secure and

fully HIPAA-compliant, ensuring protected health information (PHI) is safely managed.

Exiting the Program

Can I leave the program anytime? What happens to my clients?

The initial Affiliate/Partner term is for 90 days and then renews monthly. At the completion of

the initial term, you may exit the program at any time with a 30-day written notice. Upon exit,

your active clients continue their care directly through the Asher Med software platform.
