This was quite a popular business in the US during covid. I had someone prescribe benzos after a 15 minute call where they didn’t seem to be paying attention. I believe they’re shut down down due to legal issues
I think there's a place for it, there are services that help people access things naltrexone and baclofen for alcohol addiction or finasteride for hair loss and probably many other potentially life-changing scripts that can sometimes be difficult to access even by those who need them. Its a lot easier to get a dr to continue a prescription than to initiate it if you dont have a great dr who listens and works with you
