*For on-demand Virtual Urgent Care visits, you can pay with a credit card or a health savings account (HSA) card. You are responsible for the cost of any prescriptions, over-the-counter treatments, or follow-up visits you may need related to medications.

Non-video visits are a $40 flat fee. Video visits are a $55 flat fee, or billable to insurance. If you don't have insurance, no problem - you'll only pay the flat fee. And if your condition can't be treated online, you won't have to pay anything.

### 3/5 — Survey

*2026-08-24, version 18.13.0*

I was settled in ETSU MyChart. The transfer has been cumbersome and inefficient. I’ve been in office and rather than fix it then, sent to web site. Only missing data point: med rec #. Another call. I have a log in and PW.  Asking me to sign up yet again. Your upgrade, my inconvenience and annoyance. Now this will not submit.
     I do not want 2 step verification. You will not turn it off.

### 2/5 — Non stop “treatment”

*2026-08-14, version 18.12.0*

I’ve had a cough since December 2025. It’s now August 2026 and I still have the cough. The cough started producing blood over 4 months ago and I still haven’t had any REAL treatment. I don’t sleep well, I gag constantly bc of the taste, and cough a lot. I have been given antibiotics, cough syrup, x-rays, and an ultrasound. Finally, was “referred” to a pulmonologist and told to call and make my own appointment after I waited for 9 days to hear back from the doctor’s office. Called to make an appointment, was told by pulmonary that only the doctor’s office can make appointments. I feel like they are just jacking me around so they can suck as much money as possible from the insurance company. I need some actual relief here
