|
 |
| Does OffshoreMD
issue prescriptions? |
| No. We believe that
the medications should be prescribed only after
a thorough physical examination. Since, this is
not possible in an online setting, we do not issue
prescriptions. However, we do recommend medications
for your condition. |
| |
 |
| Will my insurance
company cover your services? |
| Unlikely. Being an
online service, we cannot carry out the complete
physical check up as required by most insurance
companies. Hence reimbursement by your insurance
company is very unlikely. |
