telemedicine appointments using zoom
Midwest Dermatology physicians are now seeing eligible patients using Zoom! This telemedicine platform allows the use of video technology to provide virtual patient care in a HIPAA compliant manner. You stay safe in your own home and we will do the work from our Midwest Dermatology home base! Scroll down to learn more about Zoom Video Telemedicine.
PATIENTS SEEN ON ZOOM MUST BE ESTABLISHED PATIENTS WITH MIDWEST DERMATOLOGY AND RESIDENTS OF THE STATE OF NEBRASKA AND MUST BE PRESENT IN THE STATE AT THE TIME OF THE VISIT.
If you have a big family, chances are you are already familiar with Zoom, the latest technology for video face to face conferencing. If not, don’t worry – it’s easy! We will schedule you for a specific time and it will be a lot like visiting us in the office. Here are the simple instructions for booking and getting started on your Zoom visit:
Call (402) 933-0800 and request a Zoom appointment time.
Download the Zoom app on the device you prefer to use for your appointment. Zoom is easily accessed from phones and iPads or tablets. You can also download and use Zoom from your laptop or PC, but you must have a camera and video/audio capabilities.
- Midwest Dermatology will email you an appointment confirmation with your unique Zoom meeting number and password.
- At the time of your appointment, open Zoom and join a meeting.
- Enter the Meeting # and Password.
- At your scheduled time, a nurse will greet you online briefly and then your physician will join the appointment. We will be in our clinic seeing patients, so it is possible that there will be a wait time before your nurse is able to greet you.
- Make sure you that you are in a well-lit location. This will ensure that the physician will be able to see your skin condition clearly and see the scope and the size of the issue.
If you experience any difficulty getting your Zoom appointment started, call (402) 933-0800 for assistance.
