Online Doctor in Texas FAQs

Talk to a Doctor Online in Texas (16)

Can I see an online doctor in Texas?

Yes, the state of Texas allows online doctor visits as long as you are seen by a licensed physician. However, not every primary care physician (PCP) or speciality doctor offers online visits. If you need medical care, K Health offers 24/7 online urgent care, primary care, and mental health treatment with board-certified doctors in Texas.

Can I get a prescription online in Texas?

Legally, you have to see a doctor to receive a prescription in Texas, either in-person or through an online doctor visit. Once you have the prescription, some health care providers allow online prescription refills through their website or app. With K Health, you can schedule an online doctor visit in Texas, receive a prescription, or refill a prescription from your phone.

What conditions can online doctors treat in Texas?

You can be treated for many conditions at an online doctor visit, including minor illnesses, skin conditions, pain management, and mental health conditions. Some urgent care facilities even offer online visits. However, not every condition can be treated with an online visit, and your doctor may recommend an in-person visit to properly diagnose or treat your condition or to perform certain tests.

How much is an online doctor visit in Texas?

The cost of an online doctor visit in Texas will vary depending on your location, the condition you’re being treated for, and whether or not you have health insurance. (Patients with health insurance typically pay less per visit.) However, certain health care providers, like K Health, offer low-cost online doctor visits in Texas, regardless of your insurance status. At K Health, a single online doctor visit costs $73, or you can pay $49 a month for unlimited online visits.

Can I see an online doctor without insurance?

Yes, you can see an online doctor without insurance. However, some online visits will be cheaper than others. For example, traditional doctor’s offices typically cost more for patients without insurance, even for telehealth visits. But other health care providers, like K Health, don’t accept insurance—so the cost is the same for every patient, regardless of insurance status. With K Health, a single online doctor visit costs $73, or you can pay $49 a month for unlimited online visits.

Can I get antibiotics online?

Like any medication, you need a prescription from a licensed doctor to get antibiotics. But you can receive a prescription from an online doctor for antibiotics. Depending on your insurance company or health care provider, you may also be able to order refills online through their website or app.

Are there any conditions that K Health doesn’t treat?

K Health-affiliated medical providers can diagnose and treat most things you might see an in-person primary care doctor for. However, there are sometimes instances when we recommend you see a doctor in person.

For example, ear infections and strep throat are two common conditions that require an in-person consultation for diagnosis. However, K Health-affiliated providers can help assess severity and provide guidance on what to do next.

We also don’t treat anyone who:

  • is under 18 years old
  • lives in Hawaii or Alaska
  • has a medical condition that requires a specialist (on a case by case basis)
  • is currently pregnant
  • is currently being treated for cancer with chemotherapy or radiotherapy
  • has an autoimmune disease
  • is currently on immunosuppressants
  • is diagnosed with AIDS
  • is currently in hospice care
  • has a history of organ transplant
  • is dependent on oxygen
  • has significant liver, kidney, or other organ failure
  • is seeking medical management related to worker’s comp or injury litigation

We don’t prescribe controlled substances, and we cannot prescribe other high-risk medications that are subject to abuse. Learn more in our Medical Policies.

What happens if the clinician recommends that I see someone in person?

While excellent medical care can be administered remotely, depending on your symptoms, your medical team may recommend that you seek in-person care.

For example, we can’t treat orthopedic conditions remotely, and occasionally conditions like strep throat require an in-person lab test. We’ll always work with you to try and find the right doctor in your area to make things as easy as possible.
