Remote Consultation
Telehealth consults are available during COVID-19 and social distancing. They are ideal as well, for those clients who live out of reach to myself or any other IBCLC, for those clients who may have a contagious infection or for those who are wary of having strangers into their homes, for example. The consult is performed over a HIPAA compliant secure platform so that all health information is kept confidential. Starting in January of 2020 these consults will be reimbursable by many insurance companies. Check with your individual plan for specific coverage details.
Cost of a consult:
Initial Remote Consult $250
