How is this different from a virtual check-in?
A virtual check-in is a short telephone call with your provider. A telehealth visit is an office visit conducted remotely through the use of an internet-connected device that has camera and audio capabilities on both the provider and the patient’s side.
What does it cost?
For patients, the cost of a telehealth is the same as a “live” or in-office visit. Co-pays are added to the office statement mailed to the patient after the visit.
How is a telehealth visit billed?
Telehealth appointments are billed the same way an in-office visit would be billed. You will want to check with your specific health insurance plan for more information.
