HealthTap is a medical group and technology company delivering telehealth virtual healthcare via the web and health apps. Their customers include health consumers in the United States, health systems, insurance companies, and self-insured employers.
HealthTap allows users to ask health questions online and via mobile devices to a network of U.S. licensed physicians for free. Users are offered the option to immediately connect to, or schedule an appointment with, a physician for a consultation via video conference, phone call, or text chat. HealthTap may be accessed via the web or mobile devices utilizing the company’s iPhone, iPad and Android apps.
Health information on the service is supplied interactively by a network of nearly 140,000 licensed doctors in good standing (licensed physicians with active disciplinary actions against them are not admitted to the network). HealthTap also provides the opportunity for peer review, which consists of doctors rating each other and self-identifying specializations. The company says its doctor network is present in 170 countries.
