Do I need to prepare for my first migraine appointment?

Before your visit, it can be helpful to gather information about your migraine symptoms, including how often they occur, how long they last, and anything that seems to trigger them. If available, have a list of your current medications and any previous treatments you've tried.

What happens during a migraine appointment?

Your provider will review your migraine history, discuss your symptoms and possible triggers, and recommend an individualized treatment plan. If appropriate, prescriptions can be sent to your preferred pharmacy after your visit.

Can migraines be evaluated through a virtual visit?

Yes. Many migraine concerns can be evaluated during a video appointment. Your provider can review your symptoms, discuss treatment options, and determine whether additional testing or an in-person evaluation may be appropriate.

When will I receive my migraine prescription?

If medication is appropriate, your provider can send your prescription to your preferred pharmacy, often on the same day as your appointment.

Can my provider help with other health concerns during my visit?

Yes. In addition to migraine care, our licensed providers diagnose, treat, and manage many common health conditions through convenient virtual appointments.

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.
