Let Your Patients Know You Use Telemedicine

Physician_Survey_42318

If you are using telemedicine, it’s important to let your patients know about it. 

If you are offering telemedicine services, be sure your patients know they can see you without coming into the office. Send a message through your patient portal, place a notice on your website, and alert patients who call for an appointment. 

It’s also a good idea to update your profile with all your contracted payers so patients who look on those sites know that you are now accepting patients for telemedicine visits.   

Below are the links to update your profile for various payers. You may choose to start with your Council for Affordable Quality Healthcare (CAQH) profile or your credentialing service provider. 

Medicare updates your profile automatically on Medicare Compare based on claims submitted indicating that you use telemedicine.
