How am I compensated for my services?

Based on projected pricing, you will make roughly $1.64 per minute ($98 per hour) that you talk to a user after the first minute (first minute will be free). NOTE: You only get paid while talking to a user after the first minute. The first minute being free will help bring more people to the site which will help you in the long run.

When do I get paid?
You will receive a check in the mail every month or you can have your compensation deposited directly into your bank account.

Will I only receive users/patients who are located in a state in which I have a license to practice in?
Yes, before entering the site users/patients will select the state they are located in. Only doctors who are licensed to practice in that state will be able to talk to that user/patient. For more information on Telemedicine and getting licenses for multiple states please click HERE.

Why can I only talk to users/patients who are located in a state in which I have a license to practice in?
In most cases, doctors have to be licensed in the state in which THE PATIENT is located to be able to give that person medical advice or treatment. TalktoaDoc.org will ask users/patients which state they are located in to make sure that the doctor who talks to them has a license to practice medicine in that state.

What about malpractice coverage?
Doctors are going to complete their duties for TalktoaDoc.org as independent contractors and are therefore responsible for their own malpractice coverage as they are the ones providing the service and are ultimately responsible for it. TalktoaDoc.org does not provide malpractice insurance, but you may already be covered by your current malpractice carrier to participate. If you are unsure whether or not your current malpractice insurance carrier will cover you then please call and ask them. Remember to inform them that you will only receive questions from patients who are located in a state that you are licensed to practice medicine in. If they do not cover you then please ask why and let us know the reason to see if we can work something out. Doctors will sign an independent contractor agreement with TalktoaDoc.org and users of the site will be required to accept TalktoaDoc.org's terms of use before they will be given access to a doctor.

What information will I have to provide if I am accepted?
If you get accepted, you will be required to fill out an information packet and send us the following:
1. Certificate of Insurance from your medical malpractice carrier.
2. Copy of your medical license (wallet card copy acceptable).
3. Picture of yourself to use in your online profile.
