Telehealth Services Expand

In direct response to the COVID-19  pandemic, Medicare announced the temporary expansions of telehealth services. Even after the pandemic ends, telehealth is here to stay.

Telehealth is the virtual visit between doctors and patients using phones and computers,  which enables medical care in the comfort of your home.

Your physician can facilitate the following services through a telehealth appointment:

• Routine visits for minor ailments, such as skin
conditions and sinus infections
• Annual checkups and other preventive care
• Order prescription refills or testing supplies
• Maintenance for patients with chronic conditions,
such as diabetes
• Reviewing test results from previous visits

USING TELEHEALTH EFFICIENTLY

Be prepared for your visit! Have your device, microphone and speaker set up ahead of time. Complete any online forms in advance and have any questions and information for your doctor ready to be reviewed.

Stay connected with your doctor through the ease and convenience of telehealth visits!
