Digital Doctor is a benefit that gives Irish Life Health members unlimited consultations with a GP. You can speak with a fully qualified GP anytime from anywhere, or if you’d prefer a face to face consultation there’s an online video service also available.
- You can phone 24/7 and arrange an appointment to speak with a professional who is registered with the Medical Council of Ireland. You’ll get clear, expert guidance about anything you’d normally discuss with your own GP.
- If your condition or question is simple and straightforward, send our experienced doctors a short message 24/7, with the option to attach an image. Just download the app, select Message Dr. Fill out the simple form on your smartphone, laptop, desktop or tablet and one of our doctors will respond to you via email on the best course of action.
- With Digital Doctor, you can speak face-to-face with a GP wherever you are in the world via the camera on your smart device or computer. This may help the doctor to provide a diagnosis and advise on the most appropriate course of action.
With Digital Doctor, you can receive a referral letter (for A&E and Consultant Care) if appropriate, promptly by email or if necessary, we can post a referral letter to you.
If the doctor feels it is medically required, Digital Doctor will arrange (by fax) a prescription to be sent directly to your pharmacy. You then simply collect and pay for your medication as normal.
Digital Doctor is available to all new and renewing customers from 1st November 2016. Terms and conditions and data charges may apply.
