Now Offering Virtual Telehealth Appointments
Lake Jackson ENT & Med Spa is excited to provide our patients with convenient, at home care through our new Telehealth services. You can now meet with your provider while staying in the comfort and safety of your home. Please note that these visits are billable; deductibles, copays and coinsurance may still apply.
The following appointment types/complaints are appropriate for telehealth services:
- Tubes and Tonsillectomy consultations
- CPAP/Sleep Apnea
- Test results: pathology, labs, radiology (CT and MRI)
- Thyroid evaluations, Rx refills and annual check-ups (pending recent test results)
- Post Sinus Surgery (not needing debridement)
- Post Op Tubes and/or Tonsillectomy
- Post Op excisions (not needing suture removal)
Benefits of Telehealth Appointments
- Minimize risk of exposure by visiting your doctor virtually
- Gain peace of mind with the opportunity to express concerns about your symptoms
- Receive medical advice from your provider from the comfort of your home
- Get notified when your provider is available – no extended wait times
- Have prescriptions ordered or renewed without an in-person visit
- Use your iPhone (iOS 12 and above) or Android device (v. 7.0 and above) to virtually “attend” your appointment
Optimize Your Visit
- If you have provided an email address, you will be sent an invitation to our Patient Portal when you schedule your appointment. Be sure to log in and complete everything under “My Health.”
- Be sure to call the office immediately if you are having issues with the Telehealth technology.
- During your appointment, make sure you are in a quiet, well-lit place.
- Do NOT answer any other phone calls or text messages during your appointment.
- Please treat this just as you would an “in-person” visit.
- Your provider will be logged in and wait no more than 10 minutes for you to connect. If you fail to connect, you will be considered a no-show to your appointment and the office policy of charging $35 will apply.
- Please understand that Telehealth is a constantly evolving service and by offering our patients these services, we do not guarantee that your insurance will cover these services. There is also the possibility that your condition may need an “in-person” appointment.
