Checklist: What’s included · 24-hour timeline.
What Insert MD controls today: if your branded program (portal, catalog, PepPal, and marketing kit) is not live within 24 hours of your onboarding call, the remedy set out in your written agreement. This is a launch-time guarantee — not a promise of revenue, patient count, or earnings.
Choose Karpa Health if you want published platform tiers starting at $297/mo, a 50-state provider network, and LegitScript on the vendor site — and you will run marketing yourself.
Choose Insert MD if you want the program, marketing kit, Insert MD University, PepPal, and 24/7 one-on-one text support live in 24 hours on custom demo pricing.
Yes — as deliverables, not a ranking guarantee: Google Business Profile optimization, a program page on your site with FAQ schema, a listing and comparison page on insertmd.com, a review-collection system, and a monthly AI-visibility report. Goal: when your clients ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI, or Claude who to use locally, your business has citable facts — we do not promise #1 placement.
Yes. PepPal (iOS + Android) lets clients track their program and request refills from their phone — intake, check-ins, refill requests, and secure messaging under your brand (getpeppal.com). Refill requests are reviewed and approved by the treating clinician; PepPal does not sell or ship medication.

Karpa publishes $297/mo Launch on karpahealth.com/pricing.md. Insert MD: Competitive pricing, quoted per business on a private demo — you pay for the programs you turn on.
Insert MD: PepPal (iOS/Android). Karpa: branded patient portal on your domain — no published native client app on karpahealth.com.
