Amazon says:

My Reply:

This is a bug in Amazon's system. I am the PLLC owner. I employ multiple MDs. For me to suggest that my employees were the business owner would be fraud. Please contact me when you have adjusted your policies to match reality.

Wow. How incredibly disappointing and shortsighted of them. Hopefully it is just a glitch. 

Nope. This came up on Huddle earlier, so I wasn't surprised. If any PA has a legitimate business and need for business account, I would encourage them to do the same thing I did: let them know they're losing business.

Yikes controlled from Amazon.  What the heck is the world coming to.  

Not scheduled, just prescription/licensed only sales. I didn't even look to see if they had controlled substances, because I have zero intention of ever stocking any. I'll stick to lidocaine and steroids, maybe some NSAIDS and Abx thankyouverymuch.

I just read an article this morning about Amazon getting into telehealth. It seems they aren't providing the medical care. Just the virtual platform. No deets on costs etc.
