Allied Benefit Systems · Covered care
Clindle accepts plans administered by Allied Benefit Systems, and clinicians treat strep throat over a same-day video visit. Your specific plan's telehealth benefit is verified before the visit.
Strep throat (group A streptococcal pharyngitis) presents with sudden sore throat, fever, swollen lymph nodes, and tonsillar exudate — usually without cough. The CENTOR or McIsaac score helps decide who to test. Clindle orders a rapid strep test or throat culture at a lab near you when symptoms fit, and prescribes penicillin VK or amoxicillin (or azithromycin for penicillin allergy) for confirmed cases. Untreated strep can cause rheumatic fever — that's why we treat it. Drooling, severe one-sided pain, or trouble breathing means in-person evaluation.
Clindle accepts plans administered by Allied Benefit Systems. If your employer health plan is administered by Allied, your video visit with a Clindle clinician can be billed through your plan. We verify your specific benefits and quote your expected cost before you book.
We verify your specific Allied plan before the visit and tell you the expected out-of-pocket cost up front. If your plan doesn't cover telehealth, you can use the flat $50 self-pay rate instead.
