WHO IS IT FOR? TMC Now providers are certified in internal medicine, family practice or pediatrics that can treat patients over the age of 2. TMC Now also offers three levels of mental health providers including psychiatrists, psychologists and master’s level therapists.

Please seek medical care immediately by going to the nearest emergency department or call 911. HOW DOES IT WORK? • Request a consult: Open the TMC Now App and request a consult with either a medical provider or a mental health provider, provide medical history and pay for the consult. Your TMC Now account is also available at tmcnow.tmcaz.com or (855-754-6898). • Talk to a provider: Within minutes, a licensed provider reviews your medical history and contacts you via phone or video.* • Pick up a prescription: If a prescription is a medically necessary next step, a prescription can be submitted to a local pharmacy of your choice. DOES TMC NOW REPLACE MY DOCTOR? No. Your primary care provider or primary mental health provider knows the intricacies of your health and is crucial in providing care that’s right for you so you can prevent illness, manage chronic conditions and identify health concerns early. TMC Now provides general medical and mental health care for those times when you’re too busy, too sick, or it’s too late in the day to see your own provider. You can download a copy of your visit information to share with your regular provider at your next scheduled visit. HOW LONG WILL THIS TAKE? Most medical visit requests are answered within 30 minutes or less. While you’re waiting for the next available provider to come online, we’ll keep you posted on your status. If you miss your visit, you’ll be returned to the end of the queue. Our consults have no time limit so make sure you have the answers you need to get back on the road to recovery. * *Mental health visits are scheduled for a time that is convenient for you within 72 hours of the request and last for one-hour. WHAT DOES THE APP ALLOW ME TO DO? The TMC Now app allows members to: • Authenticate your TMC Now account. • Talk to a provider, anytime, anywhere. • Create and update your medical history. • Update personal, contact, login and billing information. ## Key features - 24/7 provider access - Phone and video consultations - Medical and mental health services - Prescription capabilities - Provider diagnosis and treatment - Suitable for ages 2+ ## Recent user reviews (5 of 5) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/tmc-now/id1445622757/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Double billed and never got an appointment *2023-10-14* Avoid using this service. I attempted to speak to a doctor and after spending an hour stuck in a virtual waiting room I used the “cancel visit” button to end the call. The next day I saw they had billed me twice for $49. I was able to call and get one of the charges refunded but I have to wait for the rest of the refund while they investigate the double charge. ### 1/5 — Beware *2023-08-04* Until now I have had great experiences with TMC, including TMC Now. My last experience was the worst interaction I’ve ever had with a health care provider. Teladoc is the company who administers TMC Now and I’m told, will through the end of this year. In July I called for a virtual appointment for an uncomplicated UTI which is listed as an problem they treat. As they require, I paid in advance for the visit. During the visit I was told by the physician that they don’t treat women of my age virtually and I would have to go somewhere to give a urine sample. I immediately called requesting a refund and followed up with an email requesting one. The contact information was for Teladoc not TMC. I have never been contacted back with a response. Teladoc has more than 300 complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau, many of them for a situation like mine, in which they give an appointment for a problem they know they won’t treat and then will not issue a refund. I would never go near this company again. To be fair, when I complained to TMC they offered both an apology and a refund. ### 1/5 — Beware *2023-08-02* Until now I have had great experiences with TMC, including TMC Now.

It was about 9:30pm on Xmas eve night when I realized I developed a UTI. I was relieved to see this app was available to give 24/7 services. The app said I was in the “waiting room” and I would receive a call shortly. I waited for a call until 3:30 am when I could no longer stay awake to wait up and fell asleep. I woke at 5:15 am to find I missed the call by 20 min. I immediately called back. The Rep didn’t seem to understand that I was calling back after getting the voicemail. Finally he said “ok let’s see how we can help” and proceeded to verify all my information several times. After all that, he said “well, if you don’t answer when we call, you need to go back into the app, cancel the visit and start over.” I really don’t know why I needed to spend 5 minutes verifying my appointment information with him when I got such a useless cookie cutter answer. I also don’t understand why it took 7 HOURS FOR A CALL BACK. I could have just gone to sleep, gotten some rest and driven to the urgent care in the morning instead of waiting around for this stupid service. ### 5/5 — Fast and convenient! *2019-06-02, version 1.1.0* It was thanksgiving night and my 3yo son ended up in our room at 2am with a barking cough. By 445am he had a low grade fever and was struggling to breathe! I drew quick steam shower and gave him some Tylenol while downloading the app. We were seen within 5 mins with a croup diagnosis. Doc was kind and spoke with compassion to my son, quickly ordering meds that were ready for pickup when the pharmacy opened at 9am. Great experience, effective cost and so convenient. I will use this again, especially with sick littles! ## Frequently asked questions about TMC Now ### What types of medical issues can TMC Now help with?
