Whether it's your first telehealth appointment or your 100th, it is always helpful to be prepared. Here are ten ways to make the most of your visit with your provider.

1. Check your Telehealth Insurance coverage.

  • For Private Insurance, contact your insurance provider

2. Complete your paperwork ahead of time (forms and consents from your Provider)

3. Make a list of:

  • Questions for your provider

  • Current medications and supplements you are taking

  • Symptoms you have been experiencing

4. Find a private location for your call if possible

  • Limit distractions

  • Find a quiet space

  • Adjust lighting

5. Set up your device ahead of time

  • Be sure your device is charged

  • Check your microphone and camera are working

  • Make sure you have a strong internet connection

  • For technical support see our For Patients: Technical Guide

6. Check in to our "practice" doxy.me room so you can see how easy it is.

7. When it's time for your actual appointment, be sure to check in a few minutes early
