Q: Can I book a same day appointment?
A: Yes. Video visits are open for both same and next day appointment times. Or, many times you can select "ASAP" to be connected with the next available provider. 

Q: Will I need to download any software or app?
A: No. Our video telemedicine platform, powered by Solv, requires only an internet browser and sustained internet connection. No downloads or apps necessary. 

Q: Are the video visits secure?
A: Yes. All data is encrypted using 128-bit keys to encrypt audio/video, and HMAC-SHA1 to verify data integrity.
