Telehealth Appointments
The Community Health Center in Cowley County is now providing Telehealth, a more convenient appointment option which allows patients to have a visit with their provider from the comfort of their home or office via home computer or laptop with webcam and microphone, ipad or smartphone. To find out how to get setup for Telehealth visits and schedule an appointment with your provider, please call the office at 620-221-3350. Please note that in the event of an emergency you should not use Telehealth, if you need emergent care call 911 to seek immediate medical help.
You can use Telehealth appointments for follow-up visits, we prefer that new patients get established with our providers prior to scheduling Telehealth appointments. Please note this is a billable service, if this is not covered by your insurance, you will be responsible for the charges.
Also, keep in mind that our Patient Portal offers other features: send messages to your provider, medication list, immunizations, lab results, statements, etc.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is telehealth?
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) defines telehealth as the use of electronic information and telecommunications technologies to support and promote long-distance clinical health care, patient and professional health-related education, and public health and health administration. Technologies include videoconferencing, the internet, store and-forward imaging, streaming media, and landline and wireless
communications.
Telehealth services may be provided, for example, through audio, text messaging, or video communication technology, including videoconferencing software. For purposes of reimbursement, certain payors, including Medicare and Medicaid, may impose restrictions on the types of technologies that can be used. Those restrictions do not limit the scope of the HIPAA Notification of Enforcement Discretion regarding COVID-19 and remote telehealth communications.
