How do preventive care appointments work?

For telehealth visits, you get an email or text message prompting you to complete the patient registration process before your visit. Then, you receive a link, which you click 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment time. You’ll see your medical provider and receive guidance virtually. 

Home visit

For home visits, you complete your patient registration forms before the appointment. On the day of your appointment, you receive a two-hour window of time in which your provider arrives at your location. 

If you need any paperwork completed, you receive it at the end of your visit. Prescriptions (if needed) are electronically transmitted to your pharmacy of choice.
