Telemedicine Consultations cost $66. If the doctor determines that in order to make a diagnosis and create a treatment plan that a physical examination needs to be performed, then the fee will be applied toward the normal examination fee of $82.50.

Veterinary Telemedicine (VTM) Guidelines
VTM may be used when:
- A physical examination of the patient has been conducted within the last year; and
- If it is possible to make a diagnosis and create a treatment plan without a new physical exam.
- Prescriptions may only be issued when VTM occurs if the veterinarian has evaluated the safety of doing so via VTM, and in compliance with all state and federal laws.
- A veterinarian shall not substitute VTM for a physical exam when a physical exam is warranted or necessary for an accurate diagnosis of any medical condition or creation of an appropriate treatment plan.
