Virtual Clinic Common Questions

What is a "virtual clinic"?

Our virtual clinic is fully staffed with medical assistants and providers like our normal clinics, they're just all online! If you are experiencing a temporary situation that prevents you from coming into one of our clinics, we will set you up to do an appointment over video chat from your home.  Your prescription will be sent in electronically and be available for pick up as normal at your local pharmacy. You will be asked to drop off a urine sample – which is essential to personalizing your treatment plan and ensuring your safety – at your closest Ideal Option clinic. Please note that Arkansas state law requires all new patients to be seen by a provider in one of our clinics. 

Stable patients or those who have temporary special circumstances preventing them from coming to the clinic can be scheduled for a virtual appointment. Please note that Arkansas state law requires all new patients to be seen by a provider in one of our clinics.

Yes, in most cases you will be asked to come to the clinic to provide a urine sample within 48 hours  of your appointment.

Home urine test kits are available at the clinic. If you are unable to come to the clinic to provide a urine sample and/or pick up a home test kit, please let your provider know at the time of your appointment. 

We will arrange for you to come to the clinic for a telemedicine appointment. Rest assured that our clinics are sanitized regularly, and we enforce social distancing guidelines in the waiting rooms.

It's okay! You can still come into the clinic for your appointment as usual. However, with COVID-19 most of our providers are working away from the clinic, so even if you come to the clinic you will likely be seeing your provider at a telemedicine kiosk. If you have internet access and a mobile phone or computer with a web-cam, please give it a try. You may find you like it! 

In most cases, you will see a provider over telemedicine in one of our outpatient clinics. If you are under quarantine at home or have other special circumstances, we may be able to see you from your home in our virtual clinic.  Please note that Arkansas state law requires all new patients to be seen by a provider in one of our clinics.
