Medication Management

One of the most convenient tools available through telehealth is medication management. Many people take medication to help manage the symptoms of an ongoing mental health disorder or as part of their overall coping strategy for a temporary challenge to their mental wellness. MindRx Group is able to provide telehealth medication management through our online psychiatry services.

Benefits of Online Medication Management

Ensuring you receive the appropriate medication therapy is crucial to caring for your mental health. Many people are faced with obstacles to getting the care they need due to a lack of providers in their area. At MindRx Group, we have removed that obstacle with our telehealth programs.

Forgetting to take medications as prescribed can have a drastic impact on your overall health. With our online medication management service, clients get the assistance they need to take the correct medicine in the right dosage at the proper time. This reduces the dangers associated with non-adherence.

Some of the benefits of our medication management system include:

• Reducing side effects

• Reducing drug interactions

• Improved administration of all of your medications

• Decreased medical expenses (no emergency room visits related to taking too few or too many medications)

• Improved mental health

• Highly convenient

• Reduced wait times

Medication management also provides peace of mind to the client and their family members. With the assurance that medications are being taken correctly, there are fewer worries about your mental health condition.

What Should I Expect from a Medication Management Appointment?

During your first appointment with a MindRx Group online psychiatric provider, your provider will review your medical history, including the previous medications you have taken. You should not expect your provider to renew any current or past prescriptions automatically. Your provider will make a diagnosis based on a comprehensive evaluation, and any medications will be guided by that diagnosis.

Using this method eliminates the risk of overprescribing or prescribing medications you no longer need. Medications may or may not be prescribed after the first appointment. Further evaluation may be required to fully assess your needs and help you reach your mental wellness goals.

After starting a new medication, you can expect frequent follow-up sessions so that your provider can monitor the prescription’s effects. Once your psychiatric provider affirms that the medication is working for you, sessions will become less frequent. Though some patients love seeing their provider every other week just to check in! It becomes like a mini therapy session.

Will My Insurance Cover MindRx Group’s Online Psychiatry Services?

Most insurance providers cover appointments to manage medication and therapy. Our staff will verify coverage when you schedule your first appointment. However, benefits are not guaranteed, and it is your responsibility to understand your coverage limits.

Coverage-related questions to ask before scheduling an appointment include:

1. Does my insurance plan cover online medication management or therapy?

2. What is the deductible I need to meet?

3. If there is no deductible, what is the amount of my copay or coinsurance?

4. Do I need to get prior authorization before scheduling an appointment?

5. Is there a limit of services?

6. Does my plan cover telemedicine?

Keep in mind that not all of our providers may be in your network or plan. When possible, we can help you find one who is.
