MEDLIVE SOUTH can send electronic prescriptions to the pharmacy of your choice as long as that pharmacy participates in the e-prescribe program. Most pharmacies currently accept electronic prescriptions. However, MEDLIVE SOUTH does not guarantee a medication will be prescribed during a visit, and all prescribing is at the discretion of the provider.

The providers can refill certain routine medications including: blood pressure, diabetes, thyroid, and birth control type medications. However, the prescription will be short term and only prescribed if your current primary care provider is unavailable.

MEDLIVE SOUTH providers do NOT prescribe any controlled pain medications, anti-anxiety medications, controlled muscle relaxers, or sleep medications.

If MEDLIVE SOUTH provider decides that further care is required beyond what can be provided online, we can help you identify the most appropriate location and time frame for your follow up. This could simply mean that you need to follow up with your primary care doctor on the next business day, or it could be recommended you seek care at an urgent care facility for same day care. It is rare, but possible, that your provider may recommend you seek emergent care at the closest emergency department if your condition is considered critical. Your provider can help you locate the closest, most appropriate facility, and the best way for you to receive further care.

MEDLIVE SOUTH does not offer scheduled appointments.

You will be provided with a visit summary after the completion of your visit.

No. All providers at MEDLIVE SOUTH believe in the importance of having an established primary care provider. MEDLIVE SOUTH providers are available to you for urgent care needs only.

There is no time limit on your evaluation. A visit with a provider typically lasts approximately 10-15 minutes when only one illness is discussed. If you have multiple issues to discuss you may be asked to follow up with another visit.

A current list of all medications and drug allergies is requested. If you feel like you might have a fever, a current temperature would also be useful. If the patient being evaluated is less than 16 years old, we also request an up-to-date weight.

You do need a few basics: a computer or compatible mobile device (tablet or smart-phone), a web-cam, and a microphone. If your computer or mobile device already has an integrated camera and microphone, you shouldn’t need any extra equipment to get started.

MEDLIVE SOUTH currently accepts all major credit cards and debit cards.

MEDLIVE SOUTH does not offer billing for insurers.

Our services may be covered by an FSA, HRA, or HSA account. Contact the account services for more information.

MEDLIVE SOUTH is compliant with all federal HIPAA and COPPA regulations. A copy of our privacy policy is made available to you when you create an account.

Telephone consultations are available, however, MEDLIVE SOUTH providers prefer to perform your evaluation using the video conference capability within our secure online system. This allows for a more thorough evaluation of the patient and their symptoms. Children under the age of 10 must be evaluated via video conference.
