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. Ondoc has no general controlled-medication pathway (specific programs through participating clinicians are the exception).

Can I put this visit through my Empire BCBS plan?

Select Empire BCBS during discovery to see current payer status before patient details. Medicaid is not accepted.

Do I need to switch primary care doctors?

No — Ondoc is a bridge, not a replacement. Keep your Empire BCBS PCP search going; use us when you need care faster than the in-network calendar allows.
