Pre-application checklist
Everything to have ready before you pay LegitScript.
The application fee is nonrefundable and the review can’t start until everything is in, so preparation decides your timeline more than the queue does. Work this list top to bottom (it saves your progress in this browser, and prints cleanly for the team) and walk into the portal with nothing left to assemble.
Our own checklist, built from the published standards and the audits we run: not an official LegitScript document. LegitScript® is a registered trademark of LegitScript LLC; we’re not affiliated with or endorsed by LegitScript.

01Corporate identity
The review starts by matching what your documents say to what your website shows. Any mismatch here costs a deficiency round-trip.
02Licensure
The application collects licenses through spreadsheet templates; the analyst then verifies them against state databases.
03State-by-state compliance
The application asks how your model satisfies each jurisdiction's telemedicine rules. This is the section that stalls unprepared applicants.
04Digital footprint
Reviewers cross-check your disclosures against what they can find. Disclosed is workable; discovered is not.
05History & disclosures
The adverse-action question reads broadly, and the lookbacks are long. Over-disclose rather than under-disclose.
06The website itself
Everything an analyst reads before ever contacting you. This is the layer a readiness scan checks in about a minute.
07Portal logistics
Small mechanical facts that save real time once you're ready to file.
The website section, checked in a minute.
Preflight scans your site against 140 rules built from the certification standards and shows the findings with evidence, so section six stops being guesswork.
One email from a human with next steps. Nothing automated.
Common questions
Before you start the list
- What documents do I need before applying for LegitScript certification?
- Corporate formation documents and your Secretary of State filing number, a completed licensure spreadsheet for every prescriber and state, pharmacy partner credentials, per-state telemedicine compliance documentation, an exhaustive domain list, affiliate details, five years of audit and adverse-action history, and test logins for any gated part of your site.
- How long does it take to prepare a LegitScript application?
- The questionnaire itself is an afternoon; the preparation is what varies. Operators with licensure records and a state-compliance matrix already maintained prepare in days, while those building the documentation from scratch typically need a few weeks. The website fixes run in parallel and most are quick once identified.
- Is this the official LegitScript checklist?
- No. This is Embed Care's own pre-application checklist, assembled from LegitScript's published standards and application guidance plus the audits we run. LegitScript® is a registered trademark of LegitScript LLC; we're not affiliated with or endorsed by them.
