What is telehealth?

Telehealth is the use of digital technology, including video calls, secure messaging, and remote monitoring, to deliver healthcare outside of traditional, in-office medical settings.

How does virtual primary care work?

Virtual primary care connects patients with licensed medical providers using compliant and secure telemedicine platforms. Patients meet with their provider via video or phone to discuss their health concerns, manage ongoing conditions and treatments, or receive preventive care. Just like a traditional doctor visit, telehealth services include diagnosis, prescriptions, coordination of care, and referrals to specialist when required, all without an in-person visit. Virtual care is ideal for routine check-ups, chronic disease management, and time-critical health questions. Alina Telehealth’s staffing model ensures reliable access to primary care providers, allowing both facilities and patients to benefit from telemedicine services.

Does Medicare cover telemedicine?

Under current federal guidelines, Medicare reimburses for a range of telehealth services, including primary care visits, mental health consultations, and some specialty care.

Coverage may vary based on the specific service, provider type, and patient location, so it’s important to verify details with your provider.
