The online consultation with the provider is considered telemedicine and is covered by most medical insurance policies. Typically, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, Health Net, Humana, and United Healthcare now cover telemedicine visits. However, coverage is also dependent on the type of plan you have with your insurance carrier.
Other insurance companies are poised to cover telemedicine so check with your carrier.
Your provider cannot immediately determine if your insurance covers your online visit. If it is covered, you will be reimbursed for the difference between your online payment and your insurance co-payment.
Please see Insurance for more information.
It can take up to several weeks for a refund to be issued following a HealthLens visit. If it has been more than 4 weeks since your HealthLens visit was completed and still have not received a refund, please contact your provider directly for more information.
