Established patients receive follow-up consultation that is typically scheduled for 30-90 minutes, unless the provider advises more time is needed. These visits are billed based on the amount of time the provider spends on your total case care- prep for telehealth and revisions to be summarized after visits. Follow up visits typically occur every 1-3 months depending on the complexity of disease state and plan of care. Over time the visits tend to become less frequent, unless 1:1 support is needed for compliance. **Some people require more support than others. Appointments can be in office or by phone/video consultation and at times electronic communication occurs- all time that is spent on care from preparation in reviewing testing, to the time required to summarize and put together what is needed for next steps is billable time. You are receiving care that is in line with concierge medicine without that initiation fee or monthly service charges. You only pay the practice for the time that is spent on your care.
