How will I be billed?

Currently, Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurers are all responding to the national emergency, with rapidly changing requirements for billing. While we anticipate that these visits will be covered by the insurers in the same manner as in person visits, this is not yet a certainty. It is also possible that you may be responsible for copays or coinsurance.
