What Beyond Med Is and What It Is Not
Beyond Med helps members and their families find and save on services that traditional health benefits often leave out or limit.
Last updated 12 October 2026Members choose a participating provider, schedule care directly or with the Beyond Med Concierge Team, and pay the provider at the agreed member rate. Beyond Med is not insurance and is designed to complement, not replace, your other health benefits.
How Beyond Med Works
- Find care. Search the Beyond Med provider network or ask the Concierge Team for help locating a participating provider.
- Schedule directly. Contact the provider to make an appointment and identify yourself as a Beyond Med member.
- Confirm your membership. Present your digital membership card or ask the provider to verify your active membership.
- Pay the member rate. Pay the participating provider directly for the service at the contracted member price.
How a Discount Plan Differs From Health Insurance
Is Beyond Med a Telehealth Company?
No. A telehealth company is one you log into and talk to a doctor through. Beyond Med is not that.
What Beyond Med does have is participating providers who offer telehealth, alongside those who see members in person. A member can search the network and save on an in-person appointment, or search the network and save on a telehealth appointment, because the provider on the other end is a participating provider either way.
The same distinction applies elsewhere. Some participating providers offer fertility care, and Beyond Med is not a fertility company. Some participating providers offer weight management, including GLP-1 programs, and Beyond Med is not a GLP-1 company. In each case the care, and any prescription, comes from the participating provider. Beyond Med is how members find that provider and access the member price.
What Members Can Access Through Beyond Med
Beyond Med focuses on services that people often pay for out of pocket or that traditional health benefits may leave out, limit or make difficult to access. Participating providers may offer services in categories such as weight management (including GLP-1 programs offered by participating providers), fertility and family planning, chiropractic care, acupuncture, physical therapy, dermatology, skin and aesthetic services, functional medicine, nutrition, menopause and hormone care, mental wellness, vision and hearing care, massage and veterinary care.
Available providers, services and member prices vary by location. Members should use the Beyond Med provider search or contact the Concierge Team for current information.

Common Questions
Is Beyond Med insurance?
No. Beyond Med is a licensed Discount Plan Organization, not an insurer. It does not provide insurance coverage, pay claims or reimburse members. Members pay participating providers directly and receive the contracted member price.
What is the difference between a discount plan and health insurance?
Health insurance provides financial protection for covered medical care under the terms of an insurance policy. A discount plan provides access to lower prices from participating providers, which members pay directly. A discount plan can help reduce the cost of specific services, but it does not provide catastrophic financial protection.
Are discount plan organizations regulated?
Yes. Discount plan organizations are regulated under applicable state law, and licensing, registration and disclosure requirements vary by state. Beyond Med operates in accordance with the requirements that apply to its program.
Is Beyond Med called a "DPO" or a "DMPO"?
Both terms describe the same kind of program. Beyond Med is licensed as a Discount Plan Organization (DPO) in Florida; some states use the term Discount Medical Plan Organization (DMPO) for the same category of license. Either way, it arranges reduced, contracted prices with participating providers. Members pay those providers directly; Beyond Med does not pay claims, reimburse members, or assume financial risk for medical expenses.
Is Beyond Med a telehealth company?
No. Beyond Med is not a telehealth company. Some participating providers offer telehealth appointments and others see members in person; members can use either and receive the contracted member price. The care is delivered by the participating provider, not by Beyond Med.
Does Beyond Med replace my health insurance?
No. Beyond Med is designed to complement other health benefits by helping members access services their traditional benefits may leave out or limit. The program does not include emergency care, hospital stays or inpatient treatment, and members should not cancel their health insurance in order to use it.
