Blue Shield NENY member FAQs
- What can a $50 online visit handle?
- Refill renewals, simple acute issues (UTI, sinus infection, pink eye, mild rashes), birth control prescriptions, and routine lab orders. Not appropriate for emergencies, controlled substances, or complex new diagnoses.
- Can I put this visit through my Blue Shield NENY plan?
- Select Blue Shield NENY during discovery to see current payer status before patient details. Member-specific eligibility, active status, and benefits are verified by our insurance verification team. Medicare and Medicaid are not accepted.
- Do I need to switch primary care doctors?
- No — Ondoc is a bridge, not a replacement. Keep your Blue Shield NENY PCP search going; use us when you need care faster than the in-network calendar allows.
