How do I get visit credits on DrHouse?

You can get visit credits on DrHouse in a few limited ways, such as through promotions, refunds issued as credits, or specific programs when available. However, visit credits are not always offered and availability may vary over time.

Quick Answer:

  • Visit credits may be offered through promotions or special programs
  • Refunds may sometimes be issued as account credits
  • Not all users will have access to credits
  • Credits are applied automatically when booking a visit
  • Availability and eligibility can vary

How to Get Visit Credits

1. Promotions or Special Offers

DrHouse may occasionally offer visit credits as part of promotional campaigns or limited-time offers. These can include:

  • new user promotions
  • seasonal campaigns
  • special access programs

These offers are not always active and availability may depend on location.

2. Refunds Issued as Credits

In some cases, if a refund is approved, the amount can be returned as a visit credit instead of the original payment method.

Refund eligibility depends on the situation. For example, refunds are considered if care could not be provided. However, refunds are generally not issued once medical services have already been delivered (such as when a consultation, prescription, or doctor’s note has been provided).

3. Incentive or Reward Programs

DrHouse may offer incentive or reward-based credits in certain cases, such as:

  • referral programs
  • loyalty or engagement rewards

These programs are not guaranteed and may not always be available.

How Credits Are Applied

If you have a visit credit in your account:

  • it will be available during booking
  • it can be used instead of paying for a visit
  • it can also be used for a family member’s visit

Credits are applied automatically when you select them during scheduling.

Limitations and What to Know

  • Visit credits are not always available to all users
  • They cover only the doctor visit—not medications, labs, or other services
  • Promotions and rewards may have eligibility rules or expiration dates
  • Refund outcomes vary based on the situation and timing of the request
  • Insurance coverage and billing are separate from visit credits
