Wellcare No Premium (HMO)

Is It Hard for You to Get to Your Provider Appointments?

Do you have trouble getting around? Do you live in a rural part of the state? If so, Telehealth Services may be for you. Telehealth Services are covered just like an in-person doctor visit. And these services are available at no cost to you!

Telehealth Services Let You Visit by Video.

You will get the care you need without driving a long distance. When you see a provider through Telehealth, it will be a lot like a regular office visit. Services may include, but are not limited to:

• Real-time video conferencing.
• Secure interactive and non-interactive web communication.
• Secure transfer of your medical records. Your doctor can use high-quality images and lab reports for your care. 

Services not covered include:

• Standard phone calls, faxes or email – combined or separate.
• Getting your medication based on an online survey.

Any in-person care that needs prior approval will need the same prior approval through Telehealth.
