How Pricing Works
DrHouse charges per visit, not based on age. Whether the appointment is for you or your child, the pricing structure remains the same.
You can choose between:
- Insurance-based visits: Your cost depends on your plan (copay, deductible, coinsurance)
- Self-pay visits: A flat fee of $129 per visit
Each child requires their own separate visit, as physicians evaluate one patient at a time.
What May Affect the Final Cost
While the visit price is the same, the total cost of care may vary depending on what’s needed:
- Medications: May have pharmacy costs unless eligible for free delivery
- Lab tests: May have separate charges depending on insurance
- Follow-up visits: Billed as additional visits
Limitations and What to Know
- Insurance coverage varies: Final cost depends on your specific plan
- Claims may be denied: You may be responsible for the full visit cost
- Out-of-pocket costs may apply: Deductibles or coinsurance can affect pricing
- Additional services are not included: Labs and medications are billed separately
