247 Virtual Video Visits is an iPhone application that connects you with medical providers for a live healthcare visit via your phone, tablet, or personal computer. Developed by BON SECOURS HEALTH SYSTEM INC, this app provides you with immediate access to medical professionals 24 hours a day, with no need for an appointment.

With just a few taps, you can sign up for free and connect with a provider in minutes. The app allows you to choose from a list of board-certified physicians, licensed physician assistants, and certified nurse practitioners. Depending on the issue at hand, the provider can diagnose, suggest follow-up, and even prescribe medications that can be filled at a pharmacy near you.

This virtual visit app costs just $49, and it may be covered by your health insurance. In-app credit card payment makes it easy and convenient, providing you with an electronic receipt that you can submit to your health plan for possible reimbursement. The app also offers expert preventive care advice about recommended tests and immunizations such as flu shots and mammograms.
