Access

Telehealth Across Florida

Telehealth consultations bring Organic Well's physician-led care to you by secure video: full intake visits, lab reviews and follow-ups, not a five-minute prescription service. They are available to patients who are physically located in Florida at the time of the appointment, in accordance with state telehealth regulations. In-person visits at the Coconut Grove, Miami clinic are available whenever care requires them.

Key takeaways

  • Telehealth at Organic Well is the same clinical care delivered remotely, with full intakes and lab reviews rather than a five-minute prescription service.
  • Florida law requires that you are physically located in Florida at the time of the appointment.
  • Labs, imaging and body composition still happen in person, at our clinic or a facility near you.
  • Certain controlled substances cannot be prescribed by telehealth under Florida law, and some visits are better done in person.
  • Telehealth is not for emergencies. If this is an emergency, call 911.

What it supports

Same clinical depth

Full intakes and lab reviews, not rushed video calls.

Statewide access

Care for patients anywhere in Florida.

Simple logistics

Labs drawn near you; results reviewed together online.

What telehealth looks like at Organic Well

Telehealth here is the same service as an in-clinic visit: the same physician, the same intake structure and the same length of appointment, delivered over secure video. What changes is the logistics: you do not lose two hours to traffic on I-95 for a conversation that does not require an examination.

Some appointments are simply better suited to it. Reviewing a twelve-marker lab panel, adjusting a protocol, or checking in six weeks after a change are all conversations, and conversations travel well.

How it works, step by step

  1. Booking: you receive a secure video link and an intake form to complete beforehand.
  2. Preparation: any outside labs, imaging or medication lists are uploaded in advance so the appointment is spent on discussion, not admin.
  3. The consultation: a full intake or review, with the same time allocation as an in-clinic visit.
  4. Testing: where labs are needed, we send the order to a laboratory near you and coordinate the draw.
  5. Follow-up: results reviewed together on video, with a written plan sent to you afterwards.

Who it’s for, and who it isn’t

Likely a good fit: patients elsewhere in Florida who want physician-led functional medicine, people with demanding schedules or frequent travel, anyone whose appointment is a lab review or protocol adjustment, and established patients maintaining continuity while away.

Likely not a fit: any situation needing a physical examination, an in-person procedure such as IV therapy, or urgent assessment. New patients with complex presentations are often better served by an initial in-clinic visit, and we will tell you when that applies to you.

What to expect at your first visit

Exactly what you would expect in the room: a full history, review of your existing records, discussion of goals, and an agreed plan. You will be asked to confirm your physical location at the start of the appointment (a legal requirement, not a formality) and to have a phone number on file in case the connection drops.

Rules, limits and privacy

Florida telehealth regulations require that you are physically located in Florida during the appointment, regardless of where you normally live. Certain controlled substances cannot be prescribed via telehealth under state law; where that applies, we will arrange an in-person visit rather than work around it.

Appointments are conducted on a secure, encrypted platform. Please join from a private space with a stable connection, and avoid public wireless networks. Telehealth is never a substitute for emergency care. If you are experiencing chest pain, difficulty breathing, or another medical emergency, call 911.

Pricing and insurance

Organic Well does not participate with insurance plans. Telehealth consultations are priced the same as the equivalent in-clinic appointment, disclosed in advance, and superbills are provided for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

Evidence

What the research says

Peer-reviewed sources, quoted directly, including where the evidence is thin.

  • In this cohort study of patients with telemedicine exposure, there was a largely favorable association with quality of primary care.

    Baughman DJ, Jabbarpour Y, Westfall JM, Jetty A, Zain A, Baughman K, Pollak B, Waheed A. Comparison of Quality Performance Measures for Patients Receiving In-Person vs Telemedicine Primary Care in a Large Integrated Health System. JAMA Network Open, 2022.

    526,874 patients across more than 200 outpatient sites, compared on standardized HEDIS quality measures. Telemedicine-exposed patients performed comparably or better on most measures, with in-person care ahead on several medication-based ones.

  • Self-monitoring, with or without telemonitoring, when used by general practitioners to titrate antihypertensive medication in individuals with poorly controlled blood pressure, leads to significantly lower blood pressure than titration guided by clinic readings.

    McManus RJ et al. Efficacy of self-monitored blood pressure, with or without telemonitoring, for titration of antihypertensive medication (TASMINH4): an unmasked randomised controlled trial. The Lancet, 2018.

    1,182 patients across 142 practices. Systolic blood pressure at 12 months was 4.7 mmHg lower with telemonitoring than with clinic-guided care. It is evidence that remote data can beat the reading taken in the room.

  • The findings in our review indicate that the use of TM in the management of heart failure appears to lead to similar health outcomes as face-to-face or telephone delivery of care; there is evidence that TM can improve the control of blood glucose in those with diabetes.

    Flodgren G, Rachas A, Farmer AJ, Inzitari M, Shepperd S. Interactive telemedicine: effects on professional practice and health care outcomes. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015. (“TM” = telemedicine.)

    Similar, not superior. Telemedicine is a delivery channel; the review is explicit that its effectiveness depends on the condition, the severity and what the visit is being used for.

Our position

Telehealth replaces the drive, not the medicine. Reviewing labs, adjusting a dose, interpreting wearable data and answering questions between visits are all done as well from your kitchen as from our office. A physical examination, a blood draw, an infusion and anything that needs hands are not, and we will say so rather than stretch a video call to cover them. Florida licensure sets the other boundary: we see patients located in Florida, and we tell you when your situation belongs in the room.
