Telehealth Services: When to Use Virtual Visits

BHC offers secure telehealth visits for select appointments—making it easier to get care from home when appropriate.

Telehealth is great for:

  • Follow-up appointments
  • Medication management
  • Mental health counseling
  • Chronic disease check-ins
  • Minor illness consultations (cold, flu, rash)
  • Prescription refills
  • Lab result reviews

When to visit in person:

  • Physical exams (annual physicals, school physicals)
  • Dental care
  • Vaccinations and injections
  • Procedures requiring equipment
  • Urgent care needs

How to schedule a telehealth visit:

  1. Call your clinic and ask if your appointment can be done via telehealth
  2. You'll receive a secure video link via text or email
  3. Join the visit from your phone, tablet, or computer
  4. No special software required—just click the link!

Technical requirements:

  • Smartphone, tablet, or computer with camera and microphone
  • Reliable internet connection
  • Private space for your visit

Telehealth is covered by most insurance plans just like in-person visits. Questions? Ask our staff when you call to schedule.

Your health, your way—whether in person or online, we're here for you.
