Telehealth: A Great Option for Quality Care<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Open Door Health Center is now offering telehealth visits in our medical<\/a> and behavioral health<\/a> departments. This new option is both safe and effective.<\/p>\n

You may be able to see your usual nurse and your regular provider without having to leave your home during the COVID-19<\/a> situation.<\/p>\n

When you call to schedule an appointment, the triage nurse will assess your needs and determine if telehealth is appropriate for your appointment.<\/p>\n

If it is determined that you would be best served in the clinic, we have three levels of screenings and protections in place to limit exposure of any kind.<\/p>\n

Call (507) 388-2120<\/strong> to schedule a medical<\/a> or mental health<\/a> appointment. You can always ask If telehealth is right for you.<\/p>\n

Telehealth Safety<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Telehealth appointments are just as safe and secure as in-person appointments, but with the benefit of being seen from the comfort your home.<\/p>\n

Telehealth appointments are best by video conferencing\u2014 using your cell phone, tablet, or computer. If you do not have the necessary equipment at home, please let the scheduling nurse know. You may qualify to use (or borrow) public equipment.<\/p>\n

Telehealth visits allow Open Door providers to see patients while limiting the risk of exposure to serious infection, including COVID-19<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Telehealth Affordability<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Open Door Health Center works hard to make sure that all of your health care needs can be affordably met. If you have limited income, are uninsured, or are underinsured, you can be assessed for our sliding fee scale. Your fee is based on income and household size.<\/p>\n

Most insurance companies are covering telehealth visits at the same rate as office visits during the COVID-19<\/a> pandemic. Call your insurance company to check on coverage.<\/p>\n

If you need assistance with reaching your insurance provider, let the scheduling nurse know when you call for an appointment.<\/p>\n
