How do I get a visit set up? A telehealth visit can be scheduled by calling the office or contacting your provider through the portal. You may even be simply sent a link through text or email asking you to schedule a telehealth visit in response to a call or question you sent. FMA providers are using the doxy.me HIPPA compliant platform and you need only a smart phone or computer with microphone and camera to participate. In addition, you need to be in either Massachusetts or Rhode Island during the time of the visit.
What kinds of visits can be done with telehealth? Any kind of medication follow-up visits as well as blood pressure and diabetes follow-up visits; anxiety/depression/mental health; sick visits for cough, breathing difficulties, sinus symptoms, rashes. In addition, if you are concerned you may have COVID-19 or would like to be tested, a telehealth visit can be arranged.
What is telehealth? Telehealth is a way to have medical care provided by your physician over video chat. Video chat is preferred because sometimes even if it doesn’t seem it, more can be gained by looking at you than just over the phone. Plus, we are all missing social interaction these days so it is a nice way to connect with your family doctor.
Please note, the portal should not be used for urgent matters or concerns that may need an in-person evaluation with a provider.
Is this considered equivalent to an in-office visit? Yes. Just as an in-office visit is scheduled you will be given an appointment time. The link you will need can be found in the section below, to be used ONLY at your designated appointment time or when requested by your provider.
We at FMA remain committed to keeping our patients as safe as possible during the ongoing pandemic. For this reason we cannot accept walk-ins. We are asking that everyone call the office before they need to come in for any reason (forms,appointments. etc.) in order to be screened. In addition, we are NOT doing COVID-19 testing at our office-if you have symptoms and/or wish to be tested please contact the office by phone or by portal and you will be directed accordingly. Thank you for your continued cooperation.
