What qualifications do physicians providing care through Verra have?
Short answer
Physicians providing care through Verra are licensed, and a physician licensed in your state decides whether treatment is appropriate. Their role is to review your health information and make a medical decision. Ask for your clinician's name and credentials if you want to verify their license before proceeding.
Verra connects patients with licensed physicians for online or video visits. A physician licensed in the state where you are located reviews your information and decides whether treatment is appropriate. The decision is based on your situation, not simply on the medication you request.
The physician may ask for more health information, require a video visit, or recommend another type of evaluation. A completed visit does not guarantee a prescription. Membership, plan selection, or a financing arrangement does not replace the physician's judgment.
You can ask for the name and credentials of the clinician responsible for your care. State medical boards offer ways to verify physician licenses. Do not assume that every physician has the same specialty or board certification; ask about any qualification that matters to your care.
Before your visit, prepare a list of medicines, allergies, and questions. If you are unsure how to contact the physician after the review, ask Verra which channel to use and how follow-up questions are handled.
