The title is rather misleading, I think. FTA:

"The process works when a person signs up for Nolla Health's $4.99-per-month app and uses it to scan their face. After completing a medical history and personal information form, the AI analyzes their skin..."

Utah is not allowing any general form of no-human-in-the-loop healthcare, but has temporarily allowed this company to operate.

> title is rather misleading

Your summary is misleading. Acne is diagnosed, prescriptions are written and applied, initially with Dr review and then only 10% reviewed by doctors.

Medicines are topical and said to have mild side effects - so I guess no retinoids (or accutane pills).

fwiw, physician assistants generally work under a doctor, who's supposed to review about that many of their cases.
