Telemedicine at MidMichigan Health Park - Houghton Lake

Virtual Appointments Make Long Travel Unnecessary

A telemedicine program enables our patients to virtually meet with specialists at MyMichigan Health locations or other organizations including Michigan Medicine, without leaving the area. The visits are available using a new technology called telemedicine. This program helps you avoid the stress and cost of travel or ambulance transfers and get the specialized input needed for quicker planning and treatment.

What is Telemedicine

Telemedicine is any kind of technology that enables you to receive medical care or expertise from a remote location. We use audio and video equipment and a secure Internet connection to enable a medical provider in another location to examine you, ask you questions, consult with your local care team and provide you expert advice. You will be able to see and hear the expert in real time and interact with them much as you would during an in-person appointment.

Costs and Insurance

If a specialist is consulted, you may receive a separate billing in addition to your MidMichigan billi.
