We are certified by the National Committee for Quality Assurance as a Patient-Centered Medical Home.  As such, we offer a wide array of services and strive to limit the number of places you have to go to get your medical care.  From wellness visits to management of chronic diseases to acute care needs, we have you covered.  We offer in-house lab, electrocardiography, Holter monitors, sleep studies, Immunizations, an After-Hourse Nurse Line, and access to your information via our Patient Portal.  We are also very pleased to offer an On-Site Dietitian.

What is a patient-centered medical home?

The Patient-Centered Medical Home is a term used to describe a team-based approach to healthcare.  Our office serves as the central location for all your healthcare needs.  The goals of the Patient-Centered Medical Home are better access to health care, increased satisfaction, improved health, and reduced overall healthcare costs.

Benefits to our patients include:

• Increased Access to Same-Day Appointments for Established Patients

• Access to our After-Hours Nurse Line

• Care Management and Coordination

  • We have a Care Manager and Care Coordinator on-site to help manage our patients with complicated medical conditions.  This coordination and management includes, but is not limited to, appointment reminders, medication review and reconciliation, education on disease processes, and implementation of community resources based on your needs.  Our goal is to help those who have more complex medical conditions to receive the care they deserve and live a higher quality of life.

• A More Informed Healthcare Team

• A Better Overall Healthcare Experience

• A Reduction in Healthcare Costs

Telemedicine is available to all patients. Telemedicine is a visit conducted with your healthcare provider over video and can be done via smartphone or computer.

At Freeman Family Medicine, we utilize a HIPAA-secure platform to conduct telemedicine visits. At the time of your appointment, a text message is sent to you with a link to get you to your visit with your healthcare provider.

Currently, telemedicine can be conducted for any type of visit—new patients, acute visits, and follow-ups. Occasionally, telemedicine is not appropriate, and you may be asked to come to the clinic for examination or for further work-up. Telemedicine services are generally covered by your insurance just as if you were being seen in the office, and usual co-pays and co-insurance may apply.

To schedule a telemedicine appointment, simply call us at 501-327-0110.
