How do you transfer GLP-1 care to a new provider?

A transfer is a clinical handoff. The receiving clinician needs enough context to take responsibility for the next decision.

Start with a protected request

The public scheduling form should contain contact details and a general request—not medication names, diagnoses, doses or uploaded records. The new provider should explain how to share clinical information through a protected workflow.

Gather what is available

Useful information can include:

• the name of the current prescriber or clinic;
• the dispensing pharmacy;
• a current prescription label or prescription record;
• recent relevant laboratory results or visit notes;
• when the most recent dose was taken; and
• what has changed, helped or caused concern.

Not every transfer begins with a perfect chart. Bring what you have and let the receiving team tell you what else is required.

Expect a reassessment

The new clinician evaluates safety, response, tolerance and whether the available record supports continuing, changing, pausing or declining treatment. The clinician may request more information before making that decision.

That is why a transfer request cannot promise the same product, dose, pharmacy or timing. The prior prescription is evidence; it is not an instruction to the next clinician.

Confirm the plan before payment

If ongoing care is appropriate, the written plan should identify the medication or other pathway, price, pharmacy coordination, progress-visit cadence and what to do if something changes between visits.
