Telehealth is a service you can use to see your provider without being present in the room with them. Instead of going to Karen’s office for a medical appointment, you can log in from anywhere to attend a video call appointment. You can use your phone, computer, or tablet to attend telehealth appointments with On the Move Medical Clinic.
What are the benefits of telehealth?
Telehealth offers many benefits to patients at On the Move Medical Clinic. Using technology to your advantage in health care allows you to keep close contact with your provider. Telehealth increases communication abilities to help you stay on track with the treatments and get test results effortlessly.
Other benefits of telehealth include:
- Fewer missed appointments and cancellations
- Less transmission of diseases
- No chance of catching diseases by leaving your house
- More accurate assessments of you in your home environment
- No time spent in the waiting room
- The ability to attend an appointment from anywhere
- No time or costs spent on transportation
Whether you’re immunocompromised, sick, don’t have transportation, or are on vacation, telehealth appointments are convenient and fit many health needs. You don’t have to schedule an appointment for days, weeks, or months just because you can’t make it to the office.
When can I use telehealth?
Karen invites you to schedule telehealth visits for yourself or your family whenever you need remote care. There are some services you may still need in the office, like imaging tests and lab tests, but you can use telehealth for:
Wellness visits
During a wellness visit, Karen assesses your overall health. She then makes personalized recommendations you can use to stay healthy or improve your well-being.
Sick visits
When you or a family member develop symptoms of an illness, it’s time to schedule a sick visit. Karen evaluates your symptoms and offers care and advice to help alleviate symptoms.
Chronic disease management
Chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis require long-term care with treatments, regular evaluations, and lifestyle management. You can use telehealth for many of your visits to manage prescriptions and bring up concerns related to your quality of life.
To make a telehealth visit for yourself or a family member, call On the Move Medical Clinic or schedule an appointment online today.
