Why was I billed for an ‘office visit’ if my appointment was online?

The simple answer: billing codes haven’t evolved the way care has. To insurers, an office visit and a virtual visit are the same and are covered at the same rate. As virtual care becomes more common, we expect the billing codes will catch up.
