Time to first patient

Primary care practices typically enroll 20 to 30 patients within the first 3 months of launching a cash-pay program through Karpa. At $200 to $350 per patient per month for peptide or GLP-1 therapy, that translates to $4,000 to $8,000 in incremental monthly revenue with no insurance billing, no prior authorizations, and no added staff. Weight loss programs serve as an entry point: patients who start with GLP-1 therapy often expand into peptide or hormone optimization protocols, increasing lifetime value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need special training or certifications to prescribe peptides?
Any licensed physician (MD/DO) or qualified mid-level provider (NP/PA) can prescribe peptides and GLP-1 medications. Karpa provides clinical protocols and AI-powered review to support your decision-making, but the prescribing authority you already hold is sufficient to get started.
How much time will this add to my schedule?
Karpa's AI handles intake screening, clinical summaries, and pharmacy coordination. Most providers spend 2 to 5 minutes per patient review. Follow-ups and refills are largely automated, so the time commitment is minimal even as your panel grows.
Will my patients know they are using Karpa?
No. The entire experience is white-labeled under your practice brand. Intake forms, patient communications, and the patient portal all display your logo, colors, and practice name. Karpa operates invisibly in the background.
What if a patient has a complication or adverse reaction?
You remain the prescribing provider and maintain the clinical relationship. Karpa's platform includes adverse event reporting workflows, and our clinical support team is available to assist. The compounding pharmacies we work with carry their own liability coverage for dispensing.
How does billing work for cash-pay programs?
Patients pay directly through the platform at checkout. There is no insurance billing involved. You set your consultation fees, and Karpa handles payment processing and pharmacy charges. Revenue is deposited to your account on a regular schedule.
Can I start with just one program and expand later?
Yes. Most primary care practices start with GLP-1 weight loss because patient demand is highest there. You can add peptide therapy, TRT, or other programs at any time with no additional setup fee.
