A member asked:

I would like to go on the contraceptive pill, is it possible to get a prescription via virtual consultation or do we still have to come in for physical consultation.

BC: You could try on Health Tap prime for a virtual consult. Though a PAP is usually done in close proximity (within 6 months) to prescribing BCP for the first time-they may defer for a month or two, that would be the prescribers discretion.
