A member asked:

If i make a appointment online for my back pain ( i have mri, x-ray and all that ) can you prescribe medication if you see fit?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Try HealthTap PRIME: HealthTap PRIME doctors see you via smartphone, tablet, or laptop. They can see photos you upload into your FILES. You can also send images while in the middle of a live PRIME consultation. PRIME doctors can send prescriptions to a pharmacy, but not for narcotics nor for certain other medications. PRIME is good for primary care issues but not for chronic pain situations needing pain meds. (1/2015)
