Frequently Asked Questions on Telehealth

As with any health benefit, how telehealth visits are covered depends on the Paramount plan in which you are enrolled. You can use telehealth on-demand for acute conditions such as a sore throat or sinus infection. You can also schedule a telehealth visit to help manage chronic health conditions such as diabetes or high blood pressure. Behavioral health visits are not covered in on-demand settings.

Note: To see what is covered under your plan, call Member Services at the number on your ID card.

You can make an appointment for a telehealth visit with a provider just like you would a regular office visit. If you need to speak to a healthcare provider right away, you can use an on-demand telehealth service like MinuteClinic Virtual Care™, which is covered by your plan. An on-demand telehealth visit is similar to walking into an urgent care center. You do not need to schedule an appointment.

If you have any questions related to your benefits and estimated costs, please contact Paramount Member Services at the number on your ID card.

Telehealth visits can be done through a smartphone, tablet or computer. Most devices have cameras built in, or you can use a standalone webcam. The healthcare provider you are seeing will let you know what you’ll need to connect for your telehealth visit.
