Physician Requirements:
- Physicians are encouraged to see patients in-office every 4 months with 9 Tele-consulations throughout the year.
- Delta Health understands that every patient is unique with different conditions and
complexities therefore, physicians may ask patients for additional office visits but will
only be paid at the $40 Tele-consultation rate. Most patients understand this and comply
while Delta Health has found that the more office visits a physicians request the less
business the physician will receive. Delta Health has built a successful and long term
patient base around the patients need for convient and effective chronic condition
maintenance.
- Physicians may use Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants or other staff for Tele-consultations.
- Delta Health requires every physician to upload consultation notes into our E.S.P. system
before we consider any consultation completed. Therefore, no physician will be compensated
for any consultation until the patient's E.M.R. has been updated.
