​

Please note, MyUnityPoint messages that require your doctor to spend a bit more clinical time and expertise on your care now may be billed to your insurance. This is not too different from having a virtual visit with your doctor. Coverage for this type of care depends on your insurance plan, so we recommend reaching out to them to confirm coverage.

 

• After selecting “Ask a Medical Question,” patients will see new a new pop-up window, informing them that their message may be billable. This is the point where they can choose to proceed with sending the message. Once the message is received, our clinical staff triages the message right away in order to provide the best care possible.

 

• Billable Messages: The types of messages that will be billable are discussions initiated by a patient related to new symptoms or acute illness, changes to medications, or changes to a long-term condition. This is because these will require medical evaluation and management as they would occur during an appointment. 

​

• Non-Billable Messages: The kinds of messages that will not be billable are responses to requests initiated by a provider, a question or clarification on recent orders (e.g., lab orders), appointment requests, follow-up questions from an in-person visit in the last 7 days (including in-clinic appointments or emergency/urgent care), updates on a condition or progress since the last visit that does not require an updated plan of care, or requests for copies of immunizations, dosing guidelines, or simple orders. These kinds of messages are the vast majority of the messages we receive. Patient requests made over the phone will remain not billable.
