Follow-up visits
Short visits with the prescriber you already know, to see how things are going and keep your plan current.
A follow-up is a short visit with the prescriber who knows your history.
The visit
What a follow-up covers
- 01
How things are going
You say what has changed, including what has helped and what has not.
- 02
What to adjust
The prescriber explains any change before making it, and what to watch for afterward.
- 03
Refills and the next visit
Refills are handled here. Ask a week before you run out, and we set the next visit before you leave.
What this is not
Not a place for urgent problems
Follow-ups are scheduled visits. They are not a way to reach us in an emergency. For something urgent call the office during hours, and for a crisis call or text 988 or call 911.
Questions
Three questions about this visit
How long is a follow-up?
Twenty-five minutes, at the office or by video if you are in Colorado.
How often will I come in?
Your prescriber sets the pace with you, and it changes with how you are doing. We do not set a fixed number of visits.
Is a follow-up billed the same way?
Yes. It is billed to your plan as a medical visit where we are in network. Your plan sets your copay or deductible.
