Definition
Telehealth, in plain English
HHS explains that telehealth, sometimes called telemedicine, lets you see your health care provider without going to their office. For most visits you need internet access and a smartphone, computer or tablet.
Telehealth providers generally must be licensed in the state where the patient is located, and prescribing rules can vary by state.

Questions
Telehealth: common questions
What is telehealth?
Telehealth is health care delivered remotely, by video, phone or secure messaging. NADMedics uses it so a licensed U.S. provider can evaluate you for NAD+ therapy without an office visit.
Is telehealth as good as an office visit?
For many consultations, yes. If your provider thinks you need an in-person exam or lab tests, they'll tell you.
Do I need insurance for a NADMedics telehealth visit?
No. The consultation is free and NADMedics is self-pay.
What strengths does NADMedics prescribe?
Nasal spray: 30 mg per 0.1 mL in a 15 mL bottle. Injection: 200 mg/mL in a 5 mL vial. Your provider sets your dose.
How do I report a side effect?
Tell your provider, and you can report it to the FDA's MedWatch program. Call 911 for chest pain or trouble breathing.
Do I need a prescription for NAD+?
Yes. Compounded NAD+ requires a prescription from a licensed provider after a review of your health.
