Questions before your Wilmington video visit
Can I attend my Wilmington telehealth visit while traveling outside North Carolina?
Contact the practice before the appointment. Care depends on your physical location and the clinician’s authority to treat you there. This service-area page does not establish availability outside North Carolina.
How do I check insurance or ask about self-pay?
Send the team your current plan information and ask about the expected cost before your visit. Coverage and patient responsibility depend on your benefits. If you are uninsured, ask about the practice’s self-pay option.
