BIRMINGHAM — MediCare Plus has unveiled a new telehealth service giving patients across the UK same-day video appointments with GPs and specialists.
The service, available through the MediCare Plus app, offers consultations from 8am to 10pm daily, digital prescriptions sent straight to local pharmacies, and secure access to medical records.
“Nobody should wait weeks to speak to a doctor about a worrying symptom. Our telehealth service puts a GP in every patient’s pocket, wherever they live.”
Dr. Hannah Whitfield, Chief Medical Officer at MediCare Plus
MediCare Plus says the service will be free for NHS patients referred through participating practices, with private appointments from £29.
