RescueMD: Redefining Virtual Sick Visits Across 14 States

A Seamless Virtual Healthcare Experience

RescueMD, founded by Dr. Olubukola Okoro in 2020, stands out by offering same-day, virtual sick visits for a flat rate of $105—no insurance required. Their goal? To reduce unnecessary trips to the ER or urgent care and make quality healthcare accessible from home.

Serving Fourteen States With Virtual Access

As of mid‑2025, RescueMD extends its virtual sick visit services to patients in these 14 states: Alabama, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Jersey, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin, and Texas.

How It Works

  1. Book or request an appointment online.
  2. Office staff confirm that your symptoms are appropriate for a televisit.
  3. Pay the flat fee of $105 before the visit.
  4. Complete pre-visit forms.
  5. Attend your virtual visit via a secure video link.
  6. If labs are needed, they’re arranged through Quest or home testing.
  7. Providers send prescriptions to your local pharmacy and follow up as needed.

What Conditions Are Treatable?

RescueMD can address a wide array of non-emergency conditions, including:

  • Common cold, flu, allergies, gastrointestinal issues, chronic conditions, minor injuries, skin conditions.
  • Strep, flu, urinary testing, pregnancy tests, EKGs, vaccinations, preventative care, thyroid and respiratory infections, arthritis, and more.

Virtual care is provided in 30 cities across those 14 states, including metro areas like Minneapolis (MN), Indianapolis (IN), Salt Lake City (UT), Bellevue and Seattle (WA), Chicago (IL), Denver (CO), and more.

Benefits For Patients

  • Affordability & Predictability – A transparent flat fee of $105, with labs and medications billed separately.
  • Convenience & Speed – Same-day appointments from home, no app required—just a video link.
  • Accessibility – Licensed providers across multiple states, with in-person care available in Texas.
  • Continuity – Electronic prescriptions sent directly to your pharmacy, with follow-up on test results.

Many patients also find that using RescueMD alongside their Primary Care Physician creates a more complete healthcare experience. Virtual visits make it easy to handle urgent needs quickly, while their primary doctor continues to manage long-term health goals and preventive care.

The Bigger Picture

RescueMD’s approach reflects a broader shift in healthcare toward accessible, affordable telemedicine. By offering reliable, flat‑rate virtual visits across 14 states, it reduces barriers to care and supports patient well-being nationwide.
