Self-pay virtual medical visits work by allowing patients to schedule and pay for virtual appointments with healthcare providers directly, without the need for insurance. Patients can typically access virtual care services through a secure online platform or mobile app and schedule an appointment with a provider at their convenience.   The visit will take place via video conferencing, and the provider will conduct the appointment as they would an in-person visit. Following the appointment, patients will be provided with any necessary follow-up instructions or prescriptions. It is critical to confirm the cost and payment options with the virtual care provider.
