How does a TELEHEALTH visit work?

Scheduling a TELEHEALTH visit is easy. Simply call the clinic and we can give you an appointment slot. Provide us with a preferred phone number and your provider will call you.

If your condition cannot be treated through TELEHEALTH, your clinician may recommend that you seek in-person care with a primary care provider, or a walk-in service such as ExpressCare.

Can I receive prescriptions with a TELEHEALTH visit?

If your provider prescribes a medication, we’ll send your prescription to the pharmacy of your choice electronically.

How much does a TELEHEALTH visit cost?

No payment is expected at the time of the call. Most insurance companies will cover the visit at 100%, but you may receive a bill later.  Check individual plan coverage or ask when making an appointment.
