Student Care On the Go

 

Sandhills Community College and FirstHealth have partnered to develop Student Care On the Go (SCOTG). This on-demand telehealth platform provides an easily accessible way for SCC students to address a range of healthcare concerns with licensed medical professionals 24 hours a day, seven days a week, year-round for 12 full months.

 

SCOTG offers a fast and familiar virtual way to connect with a medical professional for care by mobile app, web, or phone when you have a health issue. SCOTG medical providers can diagnose, treat, and prescribe medication for many conditions.

• This plan is for SCC curriculum/college credit students only with no minimum credit hours required.
• Opt-in enrollment will be available at the beginning of each semester (three times each academic year).
• The annual cost of the plan is $120 and can be deducted from financial aid if/when applicable.
• The plan is for basic, non-emergency medical conditions.
• There is no co-pay for virtual visits.
• One in-person primary care clinic visit per year is allowed with no co-pay.
• Students will not lose access to SCOTG services during the year of enrollment regardless of status at SCC.
• Providers are board-certified physicians or licensed medical professionals.
