Telehealth appointments are medical visits that allow you to speak to a doctor or health care provider online via video call. These visits allow you to access care at home or on-the-go, often at a better price.

Doctors on Sesame provide high-quality care over video, including screening for COVID-19, diagnosing your eczema, treating erectile dysfunction, crafting a treatment plan to fight depression, and so much more. To get the most out of your visit, make sure you are in a well-lit space with a solid wifi connection.

After you book a video appointment, you will receive both an initial confirmation and a reminder via email and text.

There are three ways in which a video visit can be accessed:

• Select "Join virtual appointment" from the booking confirmation email.
  
• If you have an existing account or created one at purchase, log in at sesamecare.com, navigate to 'My appointments,' and select "Join virtual appointment."
  
• Click the link in the text message sent to you 15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment time.
  

We suggest using Google Chrome, Firefox, or Safari to connect to your visit.
