If I'm temporarily traveling or away from Ohio, can I still have an online session with my provider?
Due to medical licensing requirements, your Ohio-licensed provider can only provide care when you're physically located in Ohio. If you're traveling temporarily, you may need to reschedule your appointment for when you return, or we can explore options for coverage with a provider licensed in your temporary location. To ensure continuity of care while traveling, contact Blossom Health's support team before your trip. They can help you plan appointments around your schedule and discuss options for maintaining your treatment plan.

Can I use my health insurance for online prescriptions and refills?
Yes, most major insurance plans cover online psychiatry appointments and resulting prescriptions. Your insurance coverage works the same as an in-person visitโyour copay or coinsurance applies to the video session where your provider evaluates you and writes prescriptions. The prescription your provider sends to the pharmacy is covered according to your plan's pharmacy benefits, following your plan's normal prescription coverage, formulary, and copay structure. Generic medications typically have lower copays than brand-name drugs. Blossom Health is in-network with many major insurance carriers in Ohio. During enrollment, we'll verify your coverage and explain your expected costs. If you don't have insurance or your plan isn't accepted, we offer self-pay options with transparent pricing.
Can I use a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for online psychiatry visits in Ohio?
Yes, online psychiatry appointments qualify as eligible medical expenses for both HSA and FSA accounts. You can use your HSA or FSA debit card to pay for video appointments, copays, or out-of-pocket costs. Prescription medications prescribed during your visit are also HSA/FSA eligible expenses. This includes both the copays you pay at the pharmacy and any out-of-pocket medication costs not covered by insurance. Save your receipts and explanation of benefits statements for your records, as your HSA/FSA administrator may require documentation for tax purposes.
Are Blossom Health's Ohio psychiatric providers licensed?
Yes, all Blossom Health psychiatric providers serving Ohio patients are fully licensed to practice medicine or advanced practice nursing in Ohio. They meet all state requirements for providing mental health care and prescribing medications, ensuring you receive high-quality, professional psychiatric treatment that maintains the same clinical standards as traditional office visits.
