Question 1

does my insurance cover a video visit?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: Some plans such as with UnitedHealthcare may pay for part of the cost of a virtual health care video session. You will have to check with your insurer to see what is covered for you. I wish you well with your health!

Question 2

can my child visit aged care facilities?

Accepted Answer

Local issue: Your post does not provide any information about your location or what local issues may affect such visits. I would contact the facility about current visitation policies.

Question 3

what do i do if i encounter high floodwaters?

Accepted Answer

Stay away: Stay away. If you come upon a flowing stream where water is above your ankles, stop, turn around and go another way. Six inches of rapidly  moving water can sweep you off your feet.

Question 4

where is my dr excuse note from my visit today ?

Accepted Answer

Dr. exam, then note: A doctor can write a note after doing an in-person exam. Generally, doctors do not write notes such as work-excuse or school-excuse notes, or back-to-work or back-to-school notes, without an exam. That is because a doctor's note is his written, signed, professional opinion, on whether a patient can or cannot do a particular activity. An in-person exam gives confidence to the doctor's opinion.

Question 5

will there be forms i need to fill out on my first visit?

Accepted Answer

Don't know: to what visit you are referring so the question is difficult to answer.

Question 9

will you please make an recomodation that i can visit my house docter?

Accepted Answer

: Unfortunately, we cannot do that on this portion of the platform. This is the free portion where doctors can only answer simple questions and cannot make referrals or prescriptions or make definitive diagnoses. Please contact your local health department so that you can get the referral that you need.

Question 10

this is not my first visit so why are they trying to charge me for a first time visit?

Accepted Answer

Ask you doc office: Mistakes can occur. Call the office, ask for billing department, and review the bill with them. If it is a new year, first visit may mean that it was the first time that year, but only that office can tell you its billing process and protocols. The office prefers billing be accurate as well. Good luck
