BDC Home Telemedicine
Patient Info and Appointment Preparation
Routine Diabetes Appointments
Thank you for choosing the home-telemedicine program at the Barbara Davis Center for your/your child’s diabetes care. As these appointments are completed from your home, we would like to review some of the aspects of the visit that may be different from what you typically expect in clinic.
BDC home-telehealth visits are completed over secure videoconferencing using Zoom. You will be sent a zoom link prior to you visit through email. Please make sure you have the Zoom app installed on the device you plan to use prior to your appointment.
Prior to your visit, you will need to submit the consent for telehealth services and upload your devices (blood glucose meter, pump, and/or continuous glucose meter) (if applicable) at home. The platform you use will depend on your devices. Link to the e-form is below.
Get ready for your appointment.
Follow the steps below:
Consent for Telemedicine Services
All home telemedicine patients/parents/guardians should review and submit the Consent to Treat for Home Telemedicine Services prior to their appointment.
Use the below link to submit the eForm:
BDC Consent for Home Telemedicine Services
If unsure when you last submitted, please resubmit this form.
Once submitted, this form is good until 1 year from the submission date or until the patient turns 18 (whichever is sooner). If you have submitted this form within the past year and patient has not turned 18, you do not need to resubmit.
