FAQ
How long do referrals from specialists last?
A referral for a specialist can vary between 3 to 12 months. This is based on your current medical condition or if you’re an admitted patient at a medical facility. Be sure to ask your medical provider how soon you should use your referral to avoid having to get it replaced once a certain time has passed.
What is a virtual visit?
A virtual visit, also known as a televisit, is a medical consultation or check-up with a medical provider done virtually.
How does virtual care work?
Virtual care involves online communication between a doctor and patient through a video conferencing platform or app using a smartphone, tablet, or computer.
How long would a virtual visit appointment take?
This may vary ( depending on the medical condition) anywhere from 10-15 minutes.
How do I prepare for a virtual doctor visit?
To prepare for a virtual visit, find a quiet place in your home or office and use headphones or earbuds if necessary. It would also be helpful to have good lighting in case the doctor needs to do a physical check. Make sure to have a list of your symptoms, medical history, and any questions you may have regarding your condition.
Does my insurance cover a virtual care service?
Virtual care is more cost-effective and flexible than in-office consultations, so most insurances cover virtual care services. However, we recommend that you check with your health insurance company before booking an appointment.
What are the benefits of virtual health?
Virtual health care helps patients save time and money, especially if they have to commute to the clinic or if they are unable to take time off of work. It is also a safe way to consult a doctor without having to expose yourself to contagious illnesses outdoors.
What is virtual care used for?
Virtual care can be used for post-operation checks, health-related counseling, lab results discussion, and more.
Can I pay for my virtual care appointment without insurance?
If you have no insurance, we provide our services without insurance for self-pay patients, giving you the care when you need it most.
