# OpenLoop
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
OpenLoop is one of four nationwide medical groups providing prescribing infrastructure for GLP-1 telehealth platforms. STAT News investigation (March 2026) identified OpenLoop as part of a concentrated network supporting at least 30% of telehealth firms that received FDA warning letters for misleading GLP-1 marketing.
|
|
|
|
## Business Model
|
|
Provides affiliated clinician services for telehealth platforms. The business model separates marketing (telehealth platform) from prescribing (medical group), creating accountability gaps where neither entity takes full responsibility for the patient journey.
|
|
|
|
## Regulatory Context
|
|
FDA warning letters (March 2026) targeted telehealth marketing firms, not the affiliated medical groups directly. However, the concentrated network structure (4 groups supporting 30%+ of warned firms) creates regulatory leverage point.
