What Is Telemedicine in Concierge Medicine?
Haute MD Editorial Team
Telemedicine in concierge medicine refers to video and secure messaging visits with your concierge physician — typically used for follow-ups, acute non-urgent concerns, prescription management, and travel care, while complementing in-person evaluations.
What concierge telemedicine looks like
Video visits with your own physician (not a triage pool), secure messaging for non-urgent questions, and remote prescription management with the same continuity as in-person care.
Why it works well in concierge
Because you have an existing relationship with the physician, video visits are clinically richer than telehealth visits with a stranger — your history, exam baseline, and treatment context carry forward.
What to evaluate
Whether video visits are with your physician (not a covering pool), the platform's privacy posture, and how the practice handles cross-state travel.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I do a first visit by video?
Most practices require an initial in-person visit, then offer video for follow-up.
Are prescriptions allowed?
Yes, with limits on controlled substances and state-by-state rules.
Is it covered by insurance?
Concierge telemedicine is typically included in the membership; insurance may apply only to billable services.
Can I see my doctor while traveling?
Often yes, subject to state licensure restrictions.
