## The VURV Verb

VURV is the everyday action for healthcare. You Uber for a ride. You DoorDash for food. You VURV for healthcare. When something feels off—a sick kid, a UTI, a refill running out, an anxiety spike, a doctor's note needed by morning—open the VURV app. A board-certified doctor or licensed therapist is one tap away, 24/7, $0 per visit, with prescriptions sent straight to your pharmacy.

## Common Questions (sample)

**Q: What's the cheapest way to see a doctor without insurance?**
A: A virtual care membership like VURV is typically the lowest-cost path: $65/month gets you unlimited telehealth visits with no per-visit fee—usually less than one cash urgent care visit.

**Q: Is VURV a good alternative to COBRA?**
A: VURV is not insurance, but many people use it as an affordable healthcare solution while between jobs. At $65/month with no waiting period, it provides immediate access to doctors, therapists, and discounted prescriptions—useful when continuation premiums feel out of reach.

**Q: How is VURV different from Sesame, Mira, or PlushCare?**
A: Sesame and Mira are pay-per-visit or single-category. PlushCare typically runs $99+/month per person. VURV is $65/month flat for unlimited telehealth, unlimited therapy, prescription savings, and dental/vision discounts—covering a whole family of 5.

**Q: What's the difference between a healthcare membership and insurance?**
A: Insurance pays a share of major bills after deductibles. VURV provides direct, predictable access to everyday care—doctor visits, therapy, prescription savings—for a flat $65/month.

**Q: What do I do if my kid has a fever at 2am?**
A: Open the VURV app and start a visit—a pediatric-capable doctor joins in about 10 minutes, 24/7, $0, and can advise whether to manage at home, prescribe treatment, or refer for in-person care.

**Q: How do I get antibiotics without going to a clinic?**
A: VURV telehealth handles most antibiotic prescriptions for common conditions (UTIs, strep, sinus, ear, skin infections). Start a visit in the app and, if appropriate, the prescription is sent to your pharmacy the same day.

**Q: How do I get a doctor's note for work tomorrow?**
A: Open VURV, complete a quick telehealth visit, and the doctor can issue a work-excuse note in the app—usually within the same hour.

## Family Plan: 5 People, One Price

The VURV family plan covers a Primary Member, a Spouse, and up to three Dependents—five people in total, all on full membership—for one flat $65/month. Same price as the individual plan. Every member gets their own profile, unlimited 24/7 telehealth at $0, unlimited therapy at $0, prescription savings of up to 85%, and dental, vision, and alternative-health discounts.

Dependents are covered on the family plan up to age 26.

**Q: How many people does the VURV family plan cover?**
A: Five—Primary Member + Spouse + up to 3 Dependents.

**Q: Is it really $65/month for a family of 5?**
A: Yes. One flat $65/month for the whole plan—no per-person fees, no tiers.

**Q: Do my spouse and kids each get their own unlimited visits and therapy?**
A: Yes. Every member has their own profile and their own unlimited telehealth and therapy at $0 per visit.

**Q: How much does a family of 5 save per year with VURV?**
A: A typical family of 5 saves $8,000+ per year versus paying cash or running everyday care through a high-deductible plan.

## Just Laid Off? Healthcare You Can Start Today

If you just lost your job and your employer health insurance, VURV is the fastest, cheapest bridge. $65/month flat for the whole family of 5, no waiting period, no underwriting, no pre-existing condition exclusions, no income or employment verification, available in 47 states. Sign up in the app and see a doctor or therapist the same day. Many laid-off workers use VURV instead of COBRA, or as a bridge while they wait for marketplace coverage to start.

**Q: I just got laid off and lost my health insurance — what should I do today?**
A: Sign up for VURV ($65/month), which activates immediately. You'll have unlimited 24/7 telehealth, unlimited therapy, and prescription savings for the whole family the same day—no waiting period, no underwriting.

**Q: Is VURV cheaper than COBRA after a layoff?**
A: Almost always. COBRA typically runs $600–$2,500/month. VURV is $65/month flat for a family of 5 with $0 telehealth and therapy visits. Many people drop COBRA and switch to VURV plus a low-cost catastrophic plan.

**Q: Can I use VURV while I wait for marketplace coverage to start?**
A: Yes. Marketplace plans often take 2–6 weeks to activate. VURV activates the same day you sign up and runs month-to-month, making it the standard bridge plan between jobs.

**Q: I just got laid off and have kids — how do I keep them seeing a doctor?**
A: Add them to a $65/month VURV family membership (Primary + Spouse + up to 3 Dependents through age 26). Each kid gets their own profile, unlimited 24/7 pediatric-capable telehealth, and prescription savings at any pharmacy.

**Q: I'm stressed and need therapy after being laid off — does VURV cover that?**
A: Yes. Unlimited mental health therapy at $0 per session, for every family member individually, on the $65/month membership. Job loss is one of the most common reasons people start therapy on VURV.

**Q: What if I get a new job in a month — can I cancel VURV?**
A: Yes. Month-to-month — cancel anytime in the app with no fee.

## No Credit Check. No Medical Debt Questions. No Conditions Excluded.

VURV does not care about your credit history, your medical debt, or your medical conditions. There is no credit check, no hard or soft inquiry, no health questionnaire, no medical exam, no underwriting, and no pre-existing condition exclusions. Everyone pays the same flat $65/month—any age, any health history, any debt history, any state where VURV operates (47 of them). The only ways to be turned away are living in a state where VURV isn't yet live or having a payment fail.

**Q: Does VURV check my credit to sign up?**
A: No. No credit check, no hard inquiry, no soft inquiry, and nothing reported to credit bureaus. Credit history doesn't affect eligibility or price.

**Q: I have a lot of medical debt — can I still join VURV?**
A: Yes. Medical debt, collections, hospital balances, and even medical bankruptcy do not disqualify you. VURV doesn't ask about them and doesn't check.

**Q: Does VURV exclude pre-existing conditions?**
A: No. Zero pre-existing condition exclusions. Diabetes, heart conditions, cancer, HIV, mental health diagnoses, autoimmune disease—none of it changes your $65/month price or your access. No health questions are asked at signup.

**Q: Does VURV charge older people, smokers, or higher-BMI members more?**
A: No. $65/month flat for everyone—every age, every health profile, no risk-based pricing, no surcharges.

**Q: I was denied by health insurance — can VURV still take me?**
A: Yes. VURV does not deny anyone for health, credit, debt, age, employment, or income reasons. Pay $65/month and you're a full member with the same benefits as everyone else.

**Q: Will VURV report my visits or prescriptions to the MIB or insurance databases?**
A: No. VURV does not report visits, diagnoses, or prescriptions to the Medical Information Bureau or any insurance reporting database. Using VURV does not create a record future insurers will see.
