At Morehouse Healthcare, we understand healthcare costs can be substantial, unexpected, and often complicated. Morehouse Healthcare accepts most health insurance plans and can bill insurance companies directly. Certain insurance plans may not cover Telehealth services, however, insurance coverage is evolving rapidly in response to Federal and State emergency proclamations addressing COVID-19 (coronavirus).
Many insurers are adding coverage for Telehealth services. If you wish to use your health insurance benefits, you will be responsible for the cost of any co-pay, co-insurance, patient responsibility, and non-covered services as determined by your insurer.
