FYI, Medicare and Medicaid now (as of April 30) reimburse audio-only visits at the same rate as video visits, to address exactly the problem you're having (technology limiting medication access). https://www.healthleadersmedia.com/finance/cms-announces-pay-parity-audio-only-telephone-visits Of course that's U.S-only. I couldn't tell whether you're in the U.S because right now `whois` is unresponsive. Also, other U.S insurance alternatives may not have the same options. -- Will Mengarini <sel...@eskimo.com> KADAN: We're helping them to lead productive, happy lives.
