Do I need to prepare anything before my hypertension appointment?

To help your provider better understand your blood pressure history, it may be helpful to have recent blood pressure readings, a list of medications, and any relevant health information available during your visit. If you monitor your blood pressure at home, be prepared to discuss your recent readings and trends.

What can I expect during my appointment?

During your visit, your provider will review your blood pressure history, symptoms, medical background, and overall cardiovascular health. Together, you'll discuss treatment options, lifestyle factors, and next steps. If clinically appropriate, medications, lab work, or specialist referrals may be recommended.

Can high blood pressure be managed through a video visit?

Yes. Our licensed primary care providers can evaluate, treat, and help manage uncomplicated hypertension through secure virtual appointments. Depending on your needs, your provider may recommend home blood pressure monitoring, laboratory testing, medication management, or follow-up care. Please seek emergency medical care immediately if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, confusion, vision changes, or severely elevated blood pressure readings.

How soon will I receive my prescriptions?

If medication is recommended as part of your treatment plan, your provider can send prescriptions directly to your preferred pharmacy following your appointment.

Will I need ongoing follow-up appointments?

Follow-up care may be recommended to monitor your blood pressure, review treatment progress, and adjust your care plan as needed. Regular check-ins can help support long-term cardiovascular health and keep your treatment plan aligned with your needs.

What if I need in-person testing or examinations?

If in-person care is needed, your provider can order bloodwork or other testing at a nearby lab. Results are integrated with our HIPAA-compliant app so you can access your medical records securely.

What states do you operate in?

Circle Medical currently offers care in 32 states and the District of Columbia. To check availability in your state, begin booking an appointment. You must be residing in the state of treatment and have your primary pharmacy in that same state.

How long are appointments?

Standard video appointments are 30 minutes. Other appointment lengths may vary.

Does my provider accept my insurance?

Our practice accepts a wide range of commercial insurances. Please note that individual providers may be in-network with different insurances, and we are unable to accept certain plan types based on our insurance contracts. To confirm if we accept your insurance, you can go through our insurance verification during the appointment booking process, or on our mobile or web apps.

How much will my appointment cost if I’m using insurance?

Visits cost $35 on average with insurance. We will provide a cost estimate at booking, although there are cases where insurance will not provide real-time benefit information. Your final out-of-pocket cost is determined after we submit a claim to your insurance, and is based on the details of your insurance plan. Book an appointment and enter your insurance information to get an estimate before you confirm. For the most accurate estimate, call the number on the back of your insurance card.

How does billing work?

If you choose to self-pay, you will be sent an invoice shortly after your provider finalizes your appointment summary (typically within two days). Any balances that are not paid within 48 hours of invoice notice will be charged to your default payment method on file. If you choose to bill your appointment to insurance, it typically takes 4-6 weeks for your insurance to process your claim and return your out-of-pocket cost, including any applicable deductibles, co-pays, and/or coinsurance. The amount on the invoice should reflect the balance that is owed after your insurance has paid its share. You will be sent an invoice letting you know of an upcoming charge for your out-of-pocket cost. Any balances that are not paid within 48 hours of invoice notice will be charged to your default payment method on file.
