TELEHEALTH

During these uncertain times, we want to ensure that our clients are receiving the best possible support and care from our clinicians at Athans and Associates. If you are uncomfortable coming into the office, we are offering our clients telehealth sessions in order to provide ongoing support. What is telehealth you may ask?

Telehealth is the use of a telecommunication system to provide medical services from remote locations instead of direct face-to-face contact. Our Platform offers a Business Associates Agreement via Doxy.me guaranteeing HIPAA compliance.

The Governor of the State of Illinois recently made an executive order to expand healthcare services and protect healthcare providers in response to COVID-19, requiring all health insurers regulated by the Department of Insurance to cover the costs of Telehealth services rendered by in-network providers. You should check with your insurance, however, especially if your employer has provided a self-insured plan.
