Another update about telehealth billing... I verified with our state medical association that Texas has a payment parity law - so telehealth should be paid at the same rate as in-office. I wondered if it's because I had the wrong PoS. I had billed with PoS 02 for telehealth but I saw that some payer guidelines say to use 11. So I did some corrected claims and will report back.

We haven't had to test any patients. There's been a few parents testing positive and asking for advice for their kids. Also, fortunately, Houston has open community testing centers now so can send patients to test there.
