How the WestVirginiaDoc visit works

The WestVirginiaDoc visit starts with a structured intake covering symptoms, medications, allergies, and prior treatment response. A West Virginia-licensed physician (WV) reviews whether blood pressure management is appropriate, whether labs are required, and whether another approach is safer. If a prescription is indicated, it is sent to a pharmacy the patient can use in West Virginia. That prescription is not a referral to a Pittsburgh, Ohio, or Kentucky clinic across the state line.

Follow-up is scheduled when treatment starts. Chronic therapies are commonly rechecked at about four weeks, then every one to three months, or sooner if side effects appear.

What happens next

If you want to know whether blood pressure management is appropriate, start a visit. You will leave with a clear yes, a different plan, or a referral. WestVirginiaDoc does not guarantee a prescription.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my reading is 180 or higher with chest pain?
That is emergency care, not a routine telehealth visit.
Is blood pressure management available by telehealth in West Virginia?
Adults who can complete a medical evaluation by telehealth may be treated when a West Virginia-licensed physician (WV) decides it is appropriate. Controlled substances and some conditions follow stricter rules. WestVirginiaDoc does not guarantee a prescription.
Who reviews my consultation?
A licensed clinician reviews your intake and any labs. WestVirginiaDoc uses clinicians licensed in West Virginia. Unlicensed or offshore reviewers do not make the prescribing decision.
Will insurance cover this visit?
Coverage varies by plan. Ask your carrier about telehealth benefits. Itemized receipts can be used for HSA, FSA, or out-of-network reimbursement when your plan allows.
