With COVID-19 continuing to spread, insurance companies are beginning to offer telemedicine as an alternative. Anthem, Cigna, and other insurance companies are currently offering to cover telemedicine like an in-office visit at the time of this article.
One of the best ways to avoid spreading COVID-19 is to stay inside. By minimizing our contact with other people, we minimize the chance of spreading the virus. And while we understand the importance of keeping others safe, we also have needs to be met. We all need food, water, and living space in order to survive. However, we also need to take care of our health.
With telemedicine, we can stay inside our homes and still stay in contact with our doctors. While we’re not able to do physical examinations, we can do everything else. We can discuss any health concerns, any potential symptoms, and we can still offer preventative medicine.
Insurance normally covers telemedicine now. Personalized Natural Medicine is happy to offer telemedicine appointments to any of our patients who have Anthem, Cigna, or Aetna.
If you need to come into Personalized Natural Medicine, you can schedule an appointment to come into the office. We will simply ask some screening questions beforehand, take your temperature, and ask you to wear a mask.
At this time, Personalized Natural Medicine can only offer telemedicine to patients residing in the state of Connecticut.
To schedule an appointment, please contact the front desk of the Personalized Natural Medicine Clinic, located in the heart of Newtown, Connecticut.
