In July 2025, the Federal Trade Commission announced that the operators of telemedicine company Southern Health Solutions, Inc., doing business as Next Medical and NextMed, have agreed to settle the FTC’s charges that they used deceptive claims about costs and weight loss, fake reviews, and fake testimonials to lure consumers into buying their weight-loss membership programs that had hidden terms and conditions.
The proposed order requires NextMed and its principals to pay $150,000, which is expected to be used to provide refunds to consumers.
