Appointment Information

Once you make an appointment at our office, that time is exclusively reserved for your child. If, for some reason, your child can no longer make their appointment, please call us with 24 hours notice so that we can reschedule the appointment.

Our office requires that a parent or legal guardian accompany the patient to the initial appointment. If you are the legal guardian, you must provide legal proof of guardianship. If documentation is not provided, we will not be able to honor the appointment time and it will be rescheduled.

Telehealth Appointments

When you don’t have the time or the ability to visit your doctor’s office for medical care, you can turn to telehealth. The exceptional team at South Area Pediatrics Medical offers telehealth to new and existing patients, giving you the ability to video conference with your doctor, receive medical care, and be prescribed medication while staying in the comfort of your own home. If you would like to learn more about how to register for telehealth, call us at 916-394-2580.

What Do Telehealth Services Offer?

  • Two-way, high-definition video. With telehealth, you use video conferencing so that you have a face-to-face meeting with your provider — like you’re sitting together in your doctor’s office.
  • Digital patient registration. You register online, where you can submit your symptoms, allergies, medications, medical history, and ID cards prior to your first teleconference visit with your doctor.
  • Prescription management. Your doctor manages your medications and sends your prescriptions electronically to your preferred pharmacy.
  • Secure online payment. Telehealth software allows you to securely send your payment online.
  • Chat and photo-sharing capabilities. You can chat with your doctor and easily upload photos of your symptoms when applicable. Communication is a two-way street, as your physician can reach out to you with messages.
  • HIPAA compliant. HIPAA is a law that protects the privacy of your medical records and personal health information. Your telehealth interactions are also secure, and only authorized users can access your telehealth sessions.

Will Insurance Pay For Telehealth?

Some insurance companies cover telehealth, while others don’t. Additionally, some states require insurance companies to reimburse at the same rate as they cover for in-person appointments. In most states, Medicaid covers telehealth. Check with your insurance provider to find out if you’re covered.

As of March 6, 2020, Medicare is paying providers across the United States to provide telehealth services due to the COVID-19 crisis. However, this Medicare coverage may be a temporary benefit.

What Healthcare Services Can I Receive Through Telehealth?

You can receive many of the services normally provided in the office, but you need to check with your provider to learn exactly which services they offer via telehealth. In the case of a medical emergency, you need to seek care at your local urgent care facility or hospital emergency department.
