vHealth app for iPhone and iPad

vHealth is a smart new service that provides you and your family with free medical consultations and wellbeing support, directly from your mobile. Our expert doctors can diagnose medical conditions, provide treatment, make specialist referrals and offer general health advice as often as you like.

CONVENIENCE TO FIT YOUR LIFE
With vHealth, you can speak to a highly-qualified doctor at a time and place that suits you. Consultations can be used for non-emergency medical conditions or to answer everyday health questions on things like diet and exercise and stress-management.
The service is free for eligible Aetna members and because appointments take place over the phone, there’s no need to worry about missing meetings, taking time off work or interrupting your busy day.
• 30-minute appointments available 8am-8pm Sunday to Thursday (except public holidays)
• Unlimited consultations for Aetna health insurance policy-holders
• Automatic inclusion of children under the age of 18 (dependants who are 18 and over need to register separately and use their own log-in credentials)
