Telemedicine

Telemedicine enhances remote care by providing follow-ups, minor consultations, and prescription renewals when an in-person visit is not immediately possible.

How Telemedicine Supports Remote Care

• Enables virtual check-ins for ongoing conditions, post-treatment monitoring, and medication refills.

• Provides guidance on minor health concerns when an in-clinic visit isn’t feasible.

• Helps determine if an in-person exam is necessary for further diagnostics or treatment.
  

Eligibility & Limitations

• A valid VCPR (recent in-person exam or herd health consultation) is typically required for telemedicine services.

• In exceptional cases, a VCPR may be established through telemedicine if an in-person exam is not possible.

• Telemedicine cannot replace physical exams, new diagnoses, or emergency care.

• If a hands-on assessment is needed, an in-person appointment will be required.
  

Appointments & Fees

• Telemedicine consultations are by appointment only and require prepayment.

• Fees are non-refundable, even if an in-person visit is required after the consultation.
