PushHealth.com Review: A Web Platform for Accessing Healthcare from Trusted Medical Providers

Domain Info

The Whois record for PushHealth.com reveals that it was registered in August 2012. It is a good sign as websites which have been operating for a long period most likely can be trusted. The domain is going to expire on August 2019, the last update was noticed in June 2018.

A domain registrar is Amazon Registrar, Inc. Regretfully, the owner’s name and contact information are hidden by a privacy service, so I’m not sure where this company is operating from.

The website’s IP address is 34.206.253.53 which is located in Virginia – Ashburn – Amazon Technologies Inc. I found out that there are 1,894 other sites hosted on this server. It also seems suspicious that the domain has changed IP addresses 67 changes over 15 years. These findings make me doubt the legitimacy of this web platform.

Products and Pricing

Push Health, Inc. does not sell any products directly but rather connects registered patients of the platform to over 55,000 licensed pharmacies that can sell the medication across the USA.

The range of drugs that can be purchased via this website seems fairly good, it includes antibiotics, drugs for acid reflux, acne, asthma, birth control, bronchitis, cholesterol, cold sores, diabetes, eczema, ED, high blood pressure, malaria, ringworm, seasonal allergies, sinus infection, yeast infections, and some other conditions.

Each category includes a fairly large number of products. These are examples of prescription antibiotic medications:

Unfortunately, I was not able to check the prices for medications as the web platform works with various pharmacies and the prices vary greatly. At least I can say that they offer a great choice.

Payment and Shipping

Push Health does not deliver any products since it is not a pharmacy. They mention that patients can use this web platform to get e-prescriptions for medication that can later be picked up at the nearest local pharmacy.

You cannot pay for drugs using this website. For this, you need to go to the local pharmacy in which you get the prescribed product.

Legal Approvals

Since Push Health is not a pharmacy and does not sell any drugs, it does not require any legal approval. It’s just a bridge between a patient and a medical provider. They only mention that all their medical professionals in their base are licensed.

Checking with LegitScript had no results. This website is not included in the LegitScript base since it is not a pharmacy but rather an intermediate service.

Safety

This website does use antivirus programs but does have a secure connection verified by Let’s Encrypt. The encryption level is however average (128 bit). They do not use any antivirus programs, which increases the risk of your computer being infected by malware.
