Verra vs in-person care: How do the clinicians and prescribing decisions compare?

Verra uses licensed physicians to review online or video visits and make prescribing decisions. The physician must be licensed in your state. Their role is to assess whether the requested treatment fits your health needs, not simply approve an order because you selected a medication.

In-person clinicians also review your symptoms and health history before choosing a treatment plan. The main difference is that they can perform a hands-on exam during the appointment. Depending on the setting, they may also have access to testing or procedures that cannot take place during a remote visit.

With either approach, a visit can lead to a recommendation other than medication. At Verra, the physician may determine that you need in-person care. A prescription is not guaranteed, and medication is charged only after physician approval. Give complete, accurate information about your medications, allergies, and medical history. That information is important whether you meet your clinician online or in an exam room.
