A few years ago now, but with Hims, that was absolutely not the case for me.
It was about a dozen yes/no questions, and then a <5 min text chat conversation with a doctor who told me that 2 of my answers didn't fit for prescription. "If you were to tell me you also had X symptom, then that would be applicable', and effectively allowed me to "change my answer" in the text chat.
The skeptic in me says that companies like this who employ physicians in this manner (there's no insurance/office visit fee, etc.) don't make money by telling people they "don't need" this drug.
