A member asked:

Can i get a prescription for birth control through this site? if so, how long does each prescription last?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: The public Healthtap site is an information center.It does not offer to diagnose or treat anyone. There is a paid concierge service affiliated with the public site called Healthtap Prime.If you can locate a physician on that service, any services offered are negotiated on an individual basis.
