Sesame Care

Online prescriptions & refills

Service category: Online provider visits for prescription evaluation and refills

Sesame Care offers self-pay telemedicine visits for patients who need to discuss a new prescription or refill an existing medication. Patients can choose from participating healthcare providers, review pricing and appointment availability, and connect through a video visit. During the consultation, the provider reviews the patient's symptoms and medical needs and determines whether prescription treatment is appropriate. If medication is prescribed, the prescription can be sent to the patient's preferred local pharmacy for pickup. Medication costs are separate from the visit price. Sesame states that online prescription and refill appointments are available 24/7 in all 50 states. Insurance is not required for the medical visit, although a patient's insurance may help cover prescribed medication depending on their plan. A Sesame provider can evaluate symptoms and health history during a telemedicine visit and may issue a new prescription when medically appropriate; a previous prescription is not always required for a clinician to consider a new prescription. Providers may help refill existing medications after reviewing the patient's medication needs and health history; Sesame states that providers can typically assist with one or two existing prescriptions during a standard refill appointment, and additional medication needs may require a longer or separate visit. Sesame providers may prescribe medications for conditions such as infections, allergies, high blood pressure, cholesterol problems, thyroid conditions, mental health concerns, birth control and other common health needs when clinically appropriate. Sesame providers do not prescribe controlled substances through this service, including opioids, narcotics, certain stimulants and benzodiazepines. Certain prescription-refill visits exclude lab orders in AZ, HI, ND, OK, SD and WY. All prescription decisions are made by the treating healthcare provider based on the patient's symptoms, medical history and clinical needs; booking an appointment does not guarantee that medication will be prescribed or refilled.
