Oklahoma lets you complete the physician side of your application by telemedicine — a video visit instead of an in-person appointment. For many patients, that makes the whole process something you can do from home.
How a virtual visit works
- Book a telemedicine appointment with a recommending physician.
- Join the video visit. The physician verifies your identity and evaluates whether a recommendation is appropriate.
- Receive your signed recommendation, then submit your OMMA application online as usual.
What you’ll need
- A phone, tablet, or computer with a working camera.
- A private, quiet space for the visit.
- Your photo ID and any medical history you want to discuss.
Finding a virtual-friendly doctor
Not every physician offers telemedicine, so filter for it. In the directory you can see which doctors offer virtual consults and same-day appointments, and compare their fees before you book.
