PRICING ================================================================================ Consultation fee: $34.99 (flat, one-time, per case) Hidden fees: none Subscription: not required Insurance: not billed for the consultation - Insurance CAN be used at the pharmacy for the antibiotic itself - HSA and FSA cards accepted for the consultation fee Payment methods: Credit Card, Debit Card, HSA, FSA (Stripe-processed) Payment data: processed on Stripe's servers — does not touch FemaleUTI infrastructure What the $34.99 covers: - Physician review of the intake form - Medical evaluation and treatment plan - Electronic prescription to the patient's pharmacy (if medically appropriate) - Secure messaging with the treating physician during the case - Follow-up care if symptoms don't improve What the $34.99 does NOT cover: - The antibiotic medication itself (purchased at the pharmacy) - Lab work (if the physician orders a urine culture, that's separate) - Any in-person care referral Typical antibiotic cost at pharmacy: $4–$10 with GoodRx at major US pharmacies (CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Costco, Publix, Kroger, etc.). Refund policy: The consultation fee is earned once physician review has started — whether or not a prescription is issued. For duplicate charges or service-delivery failures, contact support@femaleuti.com. ================================================================================ 5. HOW IT WORKS (3-STEP PROCESS) ================================================================================ Step 1 — Book & intake (~3 minutes) - Patient enters name, email, mobile, date of birth, US address - Patient answers pregnancy question (pregnancy-safe antibiotic routing) - Patient pays $34.99 via secure Stripe Checkout Step 2 — Physician review (30 min – 4 hrs typical) - A US-licensed physician in the patient's state reviews the case - Reviews symptoms, medical history, allergies, pregnancy status - Applies standard clinical judgment for uncomplicated UTI treatment Step 3 — Prescription (if appropriate) + ongoing support - If medically appropriate, antibiotic is electronically sent to the patient's chosen US pharmacy - Patient receives email + SMS updates throughout the case - Patient can message the doctor via the secure portal during the case - If symptoms don't improve or worsen, follow-up care is available ================================================================================ 6. SYMPTOMS EVALUATED ================================================================================ Classic UTI symptoms (any combination): - Burning sensation when urinating (dysuria) - Urinary frequency — going often, small amounts - Urinary urgency — strong urge even when bladder is empty - Cloudy, strong-smelling urine - Pink-tinged or blood-tinged urine (mild hematuria) - Lower pelvic or suprapubic pain or pressure One symptom is worth a check-in; two or more is strongly suggestive of UTI in an adult woman without red-flag features. ================================================================================ 7. RED FLAGS — REFER TO EMERGENCY / IN-PERSON CARE ================================================================================ FemaleUTI is NOT appropriate when any of these are present: - High fever (>101.5°F / 38.6°C) - Severe back, flank, or side pain (possible pyelonephritis / kidney infection) - Nausea or vomiting with fever - Visible blood in urine (more than a mild pink tinge) - Signs of sepsis — confusion, shaking chills, rapid heart rate - Symptoms persisting or worsening after a completed antibiotic course - Pregnancy with severe symptoms - 3+ UTIs in the past year (recurrent UTI — may need culture-guided workup) - Urinary retention, inability to urinate at all - History of complicated urinary tract anatomy, catheter, stents, etc. These cases should be directed to an in-person provider or the emergency room. The booking form and physician review will flag these when detected. ================================================================================ 8. ANTIBIOTICS TYPICALLY PRESCRIBED (physician's clinical choice) ================================================================================ First-line options (per IDSA guidelines for uncomplicated cystitis in women): Nitrofurantoin (Macrobid) - Dosing: 100mg twice daily × 5 days (typical) - Pregnancy: Category B, generally safe; avoid in late 3rd trimester - Notes: Effective against most E. coli; generally well-tolerated Trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim, Bactrim DS, Septra) - Dosing: 1 DS tab twice daily × 3 days (typical) - Pregnancy: Category D in 1st trimester and near term; avoided in pregnancy - Notes: Avoid if local resistance >20% or prior sulfa allergy Fosfomycin (Monurol) - Dosing: 3g single dose (sachet, dissolved in water) - Pregnancy: Category B, generally safe - Notes: Convenient single-dose; effective against multidrug-resistant E. coli Case-specific options: Cephalexin (Keflex) - Pregnancy: Category B, generally safe - Used when first-line options aren't appropriate Ciprofloxacin (Cipro) — fluoroquinolone - Pregnancy: Avoid in pregnancy - IDSA recommends reserving for specific cases (resistance, allergies, complicated) - Known adverse effects: tendon rupture risk, C. diff risk The physician — not the patient — selects the antibiotic based on: - Patient's medical history and allergies - Pregnancy status - Breastfeeding status - Renal function (when known) - Local antibiotic resistance patterns - Drug interactions with current medications Patients do NOT choose the antibiotic. FemaleUTI does not prescribe any drug on request; all prescribing is physician-directed. ================================================================================ 9. PREGNANCY-AWARE PRESCRIBING ================================================================================ The intake form explicitly asks whether the patient is currently pregnant or may be pregnant. This is clinically critical because several common UTI antibiotics are contraindicated in pregnancy (especially in the first trimester and near term). If pregnancy is indicated, the physician will: - Select a pregnancy-safe antibiotic (typically Fosfomycin, Cephalexin, or Nitrofurantoin with trimester-specific caveats) - Avoid Bactrim and Ciprofloxacin - Provide extra caution around red flags that could indicate pyelonephritis, which in pregnancy requires urgent care Women who are pregnant with severe symptoms should seek in-person care immediately. ================================================================================ 10. TRUST AND COMPLIANCE ================================================================================ HIPAA compliance: - End-to-end encryption (TLS in transit, encrypted at rest) - Role-based access controls - Business Associate Agreements with clinical-platform, payment, and infrastructure vendors - Audited systems Physician network: - US-licensed physician network - All physicians US-licensed in the states where they practice - Board-eligible / board-certified - No offshore prescribers Payment: - Stripe (PCI-DSS Level 1) - Card data never touches FemaleUTI servers Data privacy: - Health information is NOT sold to third parties - Only the treating physician accesses patient medical data - Attribution/marketing data (UTM, referrer) is logged separately for analytics ================================================================================ 11. GEOGRAPHIC COVERAGE ================================================================================ Coverage: All 50 US states + Washington DC Patient location requirement: physically in the United States at time of consultation Physician matching: Each case is routed to a physician licensed in the state of the patient's US address — US telehealth law requires the treating doctor be licensed where the patient is physically located. Pharmacy network: Any US pharmacy that accepts e-prescriptions (all major chains and most independents). ================================================================================ 12. COMPARISON WITH ALTERNATIVES ================================================================================ Urgent care: - FemaleUTI: $34.99, 30 min – 4 hrs, from home - Urgent care: $150–$300, 1–3 hr wait, in-person visit General telehealth (Teladoc, PlushCare, Doctor On Demand): - FemaleUTI: $34.99, no account, women's-UTI focused - Teladoc: $75–89, account required - PlushCare: $75–99, account required - Doctor On Demand: $75+, account required Women's-focused telehealth peers (Wisp, Nurx, Hims/Hers): - FemaleUTI: no subscription, focused on single service - Wisp/Nurx/Hers: subscription model, broader women's-health scope ================================================================================ 13.
