Telemedicine

Our practice has been operational during the Covid crisis utilizing telemedicine

Telemedicine at Redding Pain Medicine

In light of the Covid pandemic, Redding Pain Medicine began implementing telemedicine (virtual visits). This new care option will allow for patients to interact with our providers via a secure video platform. Our goal is to limit individual contact where we can, but at the same time, provide the same high-quality services that you expect from Redding Pain Medicine.

Telemedicine refers to the practice of caring for patients remotely using live video visits. It allows our healthcare providers an additional way to evaluate, diagnose and develop treatment plans with a patient without the need for an in-person visit. Our practice will be utilizing a platform called doxy.me for telemedicine visits.

What are some tips for telemedicine visits?

While you will need no special equipment to complete a telemedicine visit, below you will find some tips to ensure your visit goes as smooth as possible. 

  • Telemedicine visits are best completed in a quiet space where the patient will experience as few interruptions as possible.

  • Use headphones if available.

  • Reduce the volume of speakers to prevent feedback.

  • If using an external microphone, move the microphone away from the speakers to reduce echo.


What is the cost of Telemedicine visits? 

Telemedicine visits will be billed to a patient’s health insurance. Per visit costs are similar to a traditional office visit
