Q.Why is there a membership fee?

OHDr. is based on the concept of a “Family Doctor,” a service that provides mid-to long-term health management support to customers. In order to do so, it is necessary to store our customer’s medical information in a secure environment, and the membership system is designed to maintain this environment. 

OHDr. charges a monthly membership fee, but does not charge a per-visit system fee. Therefore, our fee structure is designed to be more reasonable than the total amount you would pay for a general in-person visit.
