🚨 Medicare Telemedicine Coverage Ending Soon! 🚨

Attention Medicare patients: Medicare will no longer cover telemedicine visits after March 31, 2025. This means that starting in April 2025, all Medicare-covered visits must be in person at our clinic.

We know many of you have found telemedicine to be a convenient way to receive care, and we’re disappointed to see this change. Unfortunately, this is a federal policy decision, and we must comply with the updated regulations.

What you need to know:
📅 Last day for covered telemedicine visits: March 31, 2025
🏥 Starting April 1, 2025: All visits must be in person for Medicare patients

If you want Medicare to continue covering telemedicine, we encourage you to contact your U.S. Senators and Representatives and ask them to extend telemedicine coverage. Find your elected officials here: www.usa.gov/elected-officials or call (202) 224-3121.

We’re here to help make this transition as smooth as possible. If you have questions or need to schedule an in-person visit, call us or send us a message through the patient portal.

Thank you for trusting us with your care! 💙

🚨 Measles Outbreak in Texas – What You Need to Know 🚨

With the recent measles cases in Texas, we want to answer your most common questions:

✅ If you had two doses of the MMR vaccine, you are fully protected for life. No booster is needed.
✅ If you were born before 1957, you are considered immune due to natural exposure. No booster is needed

Measles spreads easily, but the MMR vaccine is 97% effective at preventing infection. Most chronic conditions do not reduce immunity if you were fully vaccinated.

If you have concerns about exposure or symptoms (fever, cough, rash, red eyes), call us before coming in for guidance.

Your health and safety are always our top priority! 💙
