Unique Online Patient-Physician Consultation launched in March at www.MeVisit.com. To preserve the patient-physician relationship, the patient’s health history is collected using an intuitive questionnaire, which is then transmitted to the pa­tient’s personal physician. Software allows the physician to interpret the patient’s symptoms and return a customized care plan, including a prescription order sent to a phar­macy, all in about three minutes. A copy of the visit is recorded in the patient’s medical record. The serv­ice, which works with a computer or mobile device, is intended for minor medical problems or follow-up ap­pointments. Cost varies and is determined by the physician and whether health insurance covers the e-visit. A two-year study was con­ducted to demonstrate the service’s effectiveness and safety.
