Virtual Care FAQs

  • What does this transition to virtual services mean for TeleKind patients?

    TeleKind patients will now book their appointments directly through Kind Clinic, streamlining access to care. You’ll still receive the same high-quality care, now under the expanded Kind Clinic virtual services. Your Care Navigator will now be called your Patient Advocate, who will continue to assist with your care, including medication coverage and financial support. 

  • What does this transition to virtual services mean for Kind Clinic patients?

    For Kind Clinic patients, this transition expands your options for virtual care statewide. You no longer have to book virtual services with one of our brick-and-mortar locations, instead just book under “Virtual Services.” 

  • What services are available through virtual care?

    Our virtual services include PrEP, HIV care and gender-affirming care, ensuring comprehensive support no matter where you are in Texas. You must be 18 or older to receive virtual services. PEP is available virtually, but you'll need to visit a Kind Clinic location to begin lab work. As a reminder, PEP must be started within 72 hours of HIV exposure. If you can't make it to a Kind Clinic, we can refer you to a provider near you. 

  • Will my providers change if I’m currently a patient of TeleKind or Kind Clinic?

    Our goal is to ensure a smooth transition, keeping your current providers and support services without interruption. The only change is how you book appointments and access services, not the providers you know and trust. When scheduling through our website or by phone, you can choose your preferred provider or ask for the earliest available appointment. 

  • How do I book a virtual appointment?

    You can book a virtual appointment by visiting www.kindclinic.org or by calling our Patient Support Center at 833-937-5463. Be sure to select "Virtual Services" when booking online. 

  • Can I switch from in-person care to exclusively virtual care?

    Absolutely. You can transition to virtual care whenever it suits you. Just inform our team, and we’ll guide you through the process. Regardless of whether you choose in-person or virtual care, we’re dedicated to ensuring you have access to our providers and the care you need. 

  • If I typically have in-person appointments, can I make a virtual visit instead?

    Yes, if you’re unable to attend an in-person appointment or usually receive care in-clinic but need a virtual visit, you can easily schedule one. Regardless of whether you choose in-person or virtual care, we’re dedicated to ensuring you have access to our providers and the care you need. 

  • How do I attend virtual appointments?

    You can attend your virtual visit using any device with a stable internet connection that supports video calls, such as a smartphone, computer, laptop, or tablet. We’ll send you appointment reminders and invite links through email and secure text messages. 

  • How will I do my lab work if I start virtual care?

    Kind Clinic partners with Quest Diagnostics, offering extensive lab locations for your blood work. During your virtual visit, our team will coordinate lab work at a nearby Quest location. If a Quest lab isn’t available, we’ll help find alternative options.   Read more about getting Kind Clinic Labs done at Quest.

    Patients with health insurance must use their insurance to cover lab work at Kind Clinic. Insurance coverage varies. Most plans must cover preventive care labs — like lab testing for PrEP or HIV care — under the Affordable Care Act, but not all labs are guaranteed. If you are uninsured or can’t afford lab costs, our Kind Patient Assistance Program (KPAP) can provide support to cover the cost of lab work. 

  • What pharmacy partners do you use?

    We partner with several trusted pharmacies across Texas, including Avita Pharmacy, to deliver your prescriptions directly to your door at no cost. When you use your insurance and choose one of our pharmacy partners for your prescriptions, you’re directly supporting Kind Clinic’s mission. This helps us extend care to uninsured individuals and expand our services to more community members. Your Patient Advocate can provide details on the specific pharmacy partners available to you.
