    What is the cost of a virtual visit?

    A virtual visit is $59 without insurance, payable at the time of your visit via credit card. If you have insurance, check with your provider or use the app to see a list of insurance providers we accept.

  • Question: How do I create an account to schedule a virtual visit?

    Answer:

    Go to your app store (for Android, use Google Play, or for Apple products, use the Apple App Store) and download by searching "AdventHealth." You'll be prompted to create an account by entering information about yourself and will be asked to provide a credit card or health savings and reimbursement account card for billing. Your account won't be billed until after you're seen and treated.

    Note: Each member of your immediate family will need their own account. If your child is under 18, you will fill out the guarantor section as their guardian.

    As the parent and/or guardian, you will have to create a primary account (which you can use for visit requests) and add multiple users. If your dependent is under 18, the legal guardian will need to fill out the guarantor section and be present with the patient during the virtual consult.

    Can my dependent(s) use the app if they're located outside the covered states?

    Due to government regulations, we cannot provide treatment to patients outside of the covered states.

You will have the option to wait for the provider or be alerted via a text message, phone call or email.

  • Question: Can I get a prescription?

    Answer:

    Yes, telemedicine physicians and nurse practitioners can prescribe non-controlled medication in accordance with state laws when deemed medically necessary. We can only provide a limited supply of long-term medications until you follow up with your primary care physician. We cannot refill controlled medications (narcotic pain relievers, benzodiazepines, etc.). Please contact your prescribing provider for these refills.

    Does the application automatically show me available pharmacies that are within my insurance network?

    No, you'll need to confirm with your insurance carrier prior to a visit to confirm that the selected pharmacy is within your network.

  • Question: How will I know my visit is private and secure?

  • Question: What happens after my visit?

    Answer:

    After your visit is complete, your visit summary will appear on the screen.

    A particular provider may not be available or may be engaged with another patient at this time. If the provider has already accepted your request for a video visit, there may be a four- to five-minute timeframe to establish the connection once the provider has signed in.

You can edit your payment information under the payment tab. Delete the existing card first, and then you can add your new credit card information.

  • Question: I keep losing my internet connection. What should I do?
