Summary

Telehealth prescribing of controlled substances expanded rapidly during the COVID-19 pandemic but remains subject to complex federal and state requirements intended to prevent diversion, fraud, and misuse. The Ryan Haight Act historically required an in-person evaluation before prescribing, while temporary pandemic waivers allowed remote prescribing; proposed DEA rules seek to balance continued access with safeguards such as synchronous audio-video visits, patient evaluations, and strong identity checks. Providers must also consider state licensure rules, prescription monitoring programs, legitimate medical-purpose requirements, and detailed recordkeeping, with noncompliance potentially leading to fines, licensing consequences, or criminal liability. The discussion emphasizes multilayered identity verification—including document validation, biometric face matching, liveness detection, database checks, and device or behavioral fraud signals—to address stolen identities, doctor shopping, impersonation, and deepfakes. It presents Didit as a platform that combines these tools with screening, workflow automation, reusable identity credentials, and compliance certifications to help telehealth organizations onboard patients securely and route higher-risk cases for review.
