Common questions

What patients should know.

Does every consultation require a lab test?

No. A lab step appears only when the doctor decides a test is needed.

Can I begin without a smartphone?

Yes. Dial *713*6839# to begin on a supported phone, with an SMS handoff when the app is needed.

Can medicine be collected instead of delivered?

Choose delivery or pickup when the selected pharmacy supports both options.

What if I need urgent hospital care?

Do not wait for an online workflow during an emergency. Contact local emergency services or go to the nearest emergency facility.
