The users will be able to consult doctors through video chat and can also look up symptoms via the Samsung Health app. However, the feature comes with a price tag. Interested users would have to pay $67 (£50) per year or $33 (£25) for a single appoint to Samsung, which will share profits with Babylon along with paying a license fee for using their technology, wrote The Verge.
