Process
The process is simple. After you request a virtual appointment, your provider sends a calendar invite with a link to digital registration forms (more information below). You complete the forms and, using the link provided, meet your provider online on the date and time specified in your invitation.
Benefits
In addition to receiving high-quality health care without going to the doctor’s office, there’s another benefit: You don’t have to be in the same location as your physician.
Convenience
If you live a distance from your primary care physician or specialist, you can still get the medical care you need in a comfortable, convenient way through telehealth.
Two-way
High Quality Video
With telehealth, you use video conferencing so that you have a face-to-face meeting with your provider — like you’re sitting together in your doctor’s office.
Digital Patient Registration
You register online, where you can submit your symptoms, allergies, medications, medical history, and ID cards prior to your first teleconference visit with your doctor.
Prescription Management
The Nurse practitioner manages your medications and sends your prescriptions electronically to your preferred pharmacy.
Chat and Photo Sharing
You can chat with your Mental Health Provider, and communication is a two-way street, as your APRN can reach out to you with messages.
HIPAA Compliant
HIPAA is a law that protects the privacy of your medical records and personal health information. Your telehealth interactions are also secure, and only authorized users can access your telehealth sessions.
In the case of a medical emergency, however, you need to seek care at your local urgent care facility or hospital emergency department.
