TELEMEDICINE CHECK-IN
Weinstein & Associates' clinicians are using a secure, encrypted and HIPAA compliant version of Zoom to provide Telemedicine services through our EHR system called Insync. This system has many benefits that will enable us to more efficiently provide services. One of these benefits is a patient portal (your email address is required to access). Here, you will be able to see your appointments and directly check-in for your telemedicine appointments. All telemedicine appointments will be via Zoom. Below are the steps for downloading Zoom, confirming it works, and checking in for your appointment.
1. If don't already have Zoom, please download here: Download for FREE here: zoom.us/download OR you can download Zoom from the confirmation email you receive after a telemedicine appointment is scheduled.
2. You will receive a confirmation email for the appopintment that includes a link to join the Zoom meeting. Click on "join meeting". Then follow all the onscreen prompts (such as download the app, enable your camera and microphone, etc.)
- After completing the above, go back to your confirmation email and click "join meeting."
- When you see the "Waiting for the host to start the meeting," that verifies your device has been setup and is ready for the actual meeting when the time comes.
3. First timer to Telemedicine? Not to worry. We'll show you how. First things, first: The Telemedicine Release This form needs to be completed and submitted once and is available to complete and submit by clicking HERE
