“The same organization that thinks you shouldn’t be able to get a prescription from a Teladoc doctor you have never met, thinks it’s perfectly okay for you to get a prescription from an ‘on call’ doctor who you have also never met, who is subbing in for your regular doctor and who probably isn’t looking at your medical records when he orders the prescription. Today, as in the past, organized medicine acts as a cartel agent for the doctors. Another opponent is Medicare. In general, the federal government won’t pay for telemedicine except under special circumstances.”
