Patients interact with a UF Health licensed pharmacist via video through the kiosks who can answer patient questions and provide guidance through the process, according to a May 15 press release from UF Health. 

The kiosks accept all insurance types, including commercial insurance, Medicare and Medicaid. The machines do not dispense controlled substances, according to UF Health.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
