How 24/7 eVisits work and what to expect

Complete a Montage Health online eVisit at any time, no appointment needed.

Technology requirements

Access eVisit from any web-enabled smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer. To make sure your data is secure and that you have the best possible experience, use the latest version of one of the following web browsers:

  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Apple Safari
  • Microsoft Edge

If needed, you can download Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox for free.

Step 1: choose our online or chat symptom survey

After you set up or log in to your secure account, you’ll choose from our online or chat interview eVisit options. You will start your eVisit by answering a series of questions about how you’re feeling, just as you would during an in-office visit.

The number of questions you have to answer depends on your symptoms. You may be asked to provide a photo to help us make an accurate diagnosis. Completing the survey takes most people about 5 to 15 minutes.

Step 2: clinician review

Benefit from the expertise of the same trusted, board-certified professionals you’d see if you visited a Montage Health clinic in person. After you submit your answers, they’ll be reviewed by a doctor, nurse practitioner, or physician assistant.

Your clinician will diagnose your symptoms and provide a treatment plan, which may include a prescription for you to fill at your preferred pharmacy.

Step 3: your treatment plan

Expect a notification by email or text message when your treatment plan is ready. Most eVisit users receive a message from their clinician within an hour, or even faster with our chat eVisit option.

What if you can’t treat my condition?

Though we’ll do our best to meet your needs, we can’t treat every condition through an eVisit. If this is the case, you won’t be charged for your eVisit, and we’ll tell you where to go to get the right type of care.

What if I need a prescription?

Depending on your diagnosis, your clinician may prescribe medication as part of your treatment plan. You’ll receive a link to send the prescription to the pharmacy of your choice.

Is a 24/7 eVisit an online pharmacy?

No. Our clinicians are licensed to only write prescriptions. We do not fill (dispense) drugs ourselves. We also aren’t able to order refills for medicines not related to the conditions we treat. We don’t prescribe controlled medications, including pain medication, narcotics, or benzodiazepines.

Will my insurance policy cover my prescription?

To make sure your medication is covered, check that the pharmacy you select is in your covered network before sending your prescription. 

How much does a 24/7 eVisit cost?

The cost of an eVisit is $25 or less, similar to a typical insurance co-pay.

Depending on your employer or insurance, you may be eligible for a reduced rate. Check with your employer to see if you qualify.

You’re responsible for the cost of any prescriptions, over-the-counter treatments, or follow-up care you may need.

Payment methods we accept

Choose to pay with a debit or credit card or your health savings account (HSA) card.

Insurance coverage

You may submit your eVisit receipt to your insurance company, but we can’t guarantee you’ll be reimbursed.

Do you accept Medicare?

Medicare patients are welcome to use eVisit. However, your eVisit is not currently reimbursable.

Get the most out of your health benefits

When you set up your eVisit account, be sure to self-identify if you are:

  • Montage Medical Group patient
  • Employee of Montage Health or one of its subsidiaries and you are a Montage Medical Group patient
  • Employee of Montage Health or one of its subsidiaries but not a Montage Medical Group patient

By indicating you’re a member of one of our partner groups, you can maximize your healthcare benefits and may receive a reduced eVisit rate.
