What’s Up Doc?

Visit a doctor online 24/7

Forget about making an appointment. Forget about wasting time in a waiting room. Now, thanks to your insurance with the MEABT, you can see a doctor on your schedule, from your own home.

This cold and fl u season and beyond, you can go online and have a video visit with a board-certifi ed doctor who is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The program is called LiveHealth Online.

“Within a few minutes I had the prescription. I was able to get to work on time. I was able to get my kids to school on time and I was able to not disrupt my day and have a great solution to my health care issue,” said Mandy, a LiveHealth Online user.

With LiveHealth Online, members can talk face-to-face with a doctor through their mobile device or a computer with a webcam. They can use LiveHealth Online for common health concerns like colds, the fl u, fevers, rashes, infections and allergies. It’s faster, easier and more convenient than a visit to an urgent care center or waiting to schedule an appointment with a doctor in person.

LiveHealth Online gives members:

• Immediate access to their choice of doctors 24/7. • Secure and private video visits with board-certifi ed doctors. • Prescriptions sent directly to your pharmacy, if needed. (Doctors cannot prescribe narcotics, like Oxycodone or lifestyle drugs like Viagra.)

Cost per visit:

Equal to the co-pay for an offi ce visit, usually $15 or $20, depending on your plan.

*Those on Medicare and those not on the MEABT plan pay $49 for the virtual visit.*

Doctors can help with a variety of issues including:

• Colds • Flu • Allergies • Sinus infections • Bronchitis • Diarrhea • Pinkeye and other eye infections • Urinary tract infections • Rashes

Please note: LiveHealth Online is not for emergencies. If you’re experiencing an emergency, call 911 immediately.
