FAQ

How can you tell a cold from COVID?

While both the cold and COVID-19 infection are caused by viruses that cause similar signs and symptoms, there are a few major differences. A cold never comes with diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. It also rarely involves muscle pain, fatigue, and fever.

How long should I wait to take a COVID-19 test after exposure to a known or suspected case?

You should not wait to take a COVID-19 test after exposure to a known or suspected case, regardless of your vaccination status. You need to get tested at least 5 days after exposure or earlier if you have COVID symptoms.

How accurate are rapid COVID-19 tests?

Rapid COVID-19 tests are accurate enough to detect the presence of the virus in symptomatic individuals. However, if it shows a negative result despite the presence of COVID-19 symptoms, an RT-PCR test is needed to confirm it.

How does virtual care work?

Virtual care involves online communication between a doctor and patient through a video conferencing platform or app using a smartphone, tablet, or computer.

How long would a virtual visit appointment take?

This may vary ( depending on the medical condition) anywhere from 10-15 minutes.

How do I prepare for a virtual doctor visit?

To prepare for a virtual visit, find a quiet place in your home or office and use headphones or earbuds if necessary. It would also be helpful to have good lighting in case the doctor needs to do a physical check. Make sure to have a list of your symptoms, medical history, and any questions you may have regarding your condition.

Does my insurance cover a virtual care service?

Virtual care is more cost-effective and flexible than in-office consultations, so most insurances cover virtual care services. However, we recommend that you check with your health insurance company before booking an appointment.

Can I pay for my virtual care appointment without insurance?

If you have no insurance, we provide our services without insurance for self-pay patients, giving you the care when you need it most.

What are the benefits of virtual health?

Virtual health care helps patients save time and money, especially if they have to commute to the clinic or if they are unable to take time off of work. It is also a safe way to consult a doctor without having to expose yourself to contagious illnesses outdoors.
