Telemedicine Q & A

What is telemedicine?

Telemedicine gives you the ability to get mental health care through online video appointments. You don’t need to drive to the office, worry about childcare, or take time away from work. Instead, you can meet with Mimi through a virtual visit.

 

What services can I receive through telemedicine?

Mimi offers the same services through telemedicine as provided in the office, including:

Initial consultation and psychiatric evaluation

You can schedule your first appointment (and all follow-up visits) through telemedicine. During your initial consultation, Mimi reviews your medical history, completes a psychiatric evaluation, and discusses your concerns.

After diagnosing the cause of your symptoms, she collaborates with you, identifying your mental health needs and creating an individualized treatment plan that meets your unique goals.

 

Medication management

After your psychiatric evaluation, Mimi determines if you need medications to help relieve your symptoms. If you decide you want medication, she sends the prescription to your pharmacy. 

After you start taking medication, Mimi schedules routine follow-up appointments via telemedicine to learn if your symptoms have improved or if you have any side effects.

During your telemedicine appointments, she may refill your original prescription, change the dose, or prescribe a new medication.

 

Supportive care

When you schedule a telemedicine appointment for an evaluation or medication management, Mimi can also recommend a therapist with experience in your mental health disorder. How do I access telemedicine?

Before scheduling a telehealth appointment, you complete information forms such as treatment consent forms and lmedical and behavioral history.

You also need to verify your insurance coverage. Most private insurance providers cover telemedicine. If your health insurance pays for in-office services, it should pay for the same services delivered via telemedicine. However, your coverage depends on your policy.

If you have questions or want to schedule a telemedicine appointment, call Mimi L. Morris, DNP, PMHNP-BC, PLLC, or connect using the online booking feature.
