Rockdoc’s Cold and Flu Rescue Kit is the first integrated solution on the Canadian market that allows users to screen for common respiratory illnesses – Strep A, Influenza A and B and COVID-19 – from anywhere and get immediate results and comprehensive care via telehealth.
Here’s how it works:
- People can receive everything they need to their homes in a convenient package either via overnight shipping across the country or from DoorDash in under two hours in select areas of Metro Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Winnipeg, Eastern Ontario and Halifax.
- As part of the kit, Canadians will be able to connect virtually with a healthcare practitioner to guide them through every step, from sample collection and testing, results interpretation, to how to manage their illness, manage risk and get back to health.
- Patients can choose to book a same-day follow-up appointment with a licensed doctor to discuss their results and symptoms, and if indicated, get prescriptions like Tamiflu or antibiotics sent directly to their pharmacy.
- Patients can also choose to have their test results forwarded to their family doctor to assure continuity of care.
“This new product is an innovative, comprehensive solution that lets individuals take charge of their health, especially for those six million Canadians without a family doctor,” said Dr Samuel Gutman, Rockdoc’s President and CEO.
