Find more information about Telehealth below:
Telehealth is the use of video conferencing to virtually meet with your provider for your scheduled appointment instead of physically coming to our office locations.
There is no additional cost to use telehealth for your appointment!
If you are interested in virtually meeting with your provider for your next appointment, please contact our billing department to check that your insurance covers telehealth sessions and that your provider is approved for this service. You can reach our billing department at 651-395-5793.
If your provider has already contacted you about using video conferencing for your next appointment, please proceed with their instructions.
If your insurance plan does not cover telehealth services you may be able to work out a self-payment option with your current provider to access this service.
Yes! Zoom and Microsoft Teams are HIPAA compliant applications. As providers, we have licensed versions of the software which encrypt client information so it remains secure. The meeting ID and passwords are specific and unique to each client session.
You can use our online bill pay to submit payment for your copay or balances due for your appointment. You can also still contact our billing office directly at 651-395-5793 to make any necessary payments as well.

I qualify for telehealth services! How do I get set up?
We have created guides to help you download and get set up on Teams or Zoom for your telehealth appointment.
Click on the device type that you will be using for your appointment below for detailed setup instructions.
Microsoft Teams
Downloading the Microsoft Teams app is not required. You may decide to download and install the full desktop client, perhaps if you would use Microsoft Teams for more than your telehealth sessions; however, joining through the web browser without downloading the app is the easiest method of connecting to your telehealth meeting.
If you’d like to join a Teams meeting without installing the Teams application, follow these steps.
Your provider or our front desk staff will have emailed or otherwise supplied you with a Meeting ID and Meeting Passcode for your upcoming telehealth appointment.
Go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/join-a-meeting, then enter the Meeting ID and Meeting Passcode in the fields presented on that page and click “Join a meeting”.
On the page that loads, select “Continue on this browser” from the options presented:
As Teams loads, your web browser may ask if you want to allow Teams to use your microphone and/or webcam. Indicate that you want to allow Teams to do so:
The final page that shows before connecting with your provider is a preparation page, where you may select turn your webcam on or off, turn your microphone on or off, etc. Type your name into the “Enter name” field. Use the toggles below that field to specify whether your webcam and microphone should be on or off. In the example below, the microphone is on and the webcam is off; clicking on the crossed-out webcam icon would turn the webcam on.
Click “Join now” to complete the connection process.
If you are having issues with the set-up process, please call our staff for assistance at 651-454-0114.
Once again, downloading the full Teams application is not required. Nevertheless, if you’d like to do so, go to https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-teams/download-app to begin the download. Once the download is complete, open the downloaded file to begin the installation. Follow the on-screen prompts to install and set up the Teams app.
If you are having issues with the set-up process, please call our staff for assistance at 651-454-0114.
Once again, downloading the full Teams application is not required. Even on a mobile device, you may join the Teams meeting through that device’s web browser. Nevertheless, if you’d like to download the Teams app, you can find it in the Google Play Store (Android) or the App Store (iPhone).
