When Should I Use Teladoc?
Use Teladoc when:
- Your provider is closed
- You can’t get a same day appointment with your provider
- When your medical or behavioral health issue is urgent, but not an emergency
Teladoc is not a replacement for your primary care provider (PCP) or behavioral health provider.

What Can I Expect From a Teladoc Visit?
- Most general medical visits last about 15 minutes or less. Most behavioral health visits last 45 minutes, just like an in-person therapy visit. You can get medical advice, diagnosis and even prescriptions, when needed.
- If a prescription is needed for your diagnosis, you can pick up the medication at any network pharmacy that you choose.
- If you need more care, the Teladoc provider will ask you to follow up with your primary care provider (PCP).
Have your CareSource member ID number ready when you call. You will need to answer a few questions about the reason for your call. A provider will contact you, usually within 10 minutes or less.
Note: Teladoc should not be used for trauma, chest pain, shortness of breath, or the prescribing of DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency) controlled substances.
