Our privacy and data practices

Our cash-pay, cancellation, and refund policies

Practice Scope &
Telehealth Disclaimer
Green Care Everywhere is a nurse practitioner–led, cash-pay telehealth practice serving adults 18 years and older who are physically located in Ohio at the time of their visit.
Our services are provided via secure video telehealth and focus on:
-
Acute, non-emergent medical concerns
-
Chronic condition management for stable conditions
-
Metabolic and weight management support through our Metabolic Reset Program
We do not provide:
-
Emergency or urgent life-saving care
-
Care for children or adolescents under 18
-
Obstetric care or high-risk specialty care
-
In-person examinations or procedures
Telehealth has limitations. Because we cannot perform a hands-on exam or certain tests during a virtual visit, some symptoms and conditions may not be appropriate for telehealth. In those cases, we will direct you to in-person care (urgent care, primary care, or the emergency department), and we may not be able to complete your visit.
Use of this website and/or scheduling a telehealth appointment does not guarantee that your condition is appropriate for telehealth, and we reserve the right to redirect you to a higher level of care when clinically indicated
Emergency & Crisis Situations
Green Care Everywhere is not an emergency service and does not provide 24/7 crisis care.
If you are experiencing any of the following, you should call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department immediately:
-
Chest pain, pressure, or tightness
-
Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath at rest
-
Signs of stroke (sudden weakness, facial droop, difficulty speaking, confusion, sudden vision loss)
-
Severe abdominal pain, uncontrolled vomiting, or signs of internal bleeding
-
Serious injury, major trauma, or uncontrolled bleeding
-
High fever with stiff neck, confusion, or rash
-
Suicidal thoughts with a plan or intent, homicidal thoughts, or psychosis
You should not use our website, contact form, portal messaging, or appointment booking system for emergency or life-threatening concerns.
If, during a telehealth visit, we believe your symptoms may represent an emergency or require immediate in-person evaluation, we will advise you to seek emergency care. Continuing in a telehealth visit is not appropriate in those situations.
Cash-Pay Practice, Insurance, and Medicare
Green Care Everywhere is a cash-based practice:
-
We do not bill commercial insurance, Medicaid, or any third-party payors.
-
We do not participate in Medicare and do not bill Medicare for services.
Patients are responsible for payment at the time of booking or service. If you have private insurance or HSA/FSA benefits:
-
You may request a receipt or superbill to submit to your plan; any reimbursement is between you and your insurer and is not guaranteed.
-
HSA/FSA eligibility depends on your plan’s rules; you are responsible for confirming eligibility with your plan.
Because we do not participate in Medicare:
-
Green Care Everywhere is unable to treat any medicare beneficiaries at this time
We are transparent about pricing, and current fees for each visit type and program are listed on our Services & Pricing and Metabolic Reset Program pages.
Privacy & Use of Information
Website Use & Non-Medical Data

Through the portal, you may:

Medical information shared in the portal is used solely for:

We use reasonable technical, administrative, and physical safeguards to protect your information. No system is completely risk-free; by using telehealth and digital tools, you acknowledge that there is always some inherent risk with electronic communication.

Website Terms of Use
Informational Purposes Only
The content on this website is for general informational and educational purposes only and:
-
Is not a substitute for personalized medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment
-
Does not create a patient–provider relationship by itself
You should not rely on any general information on this site to make medical decisions for yourself or others. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional for specific medical questions.
No Guarantees
We strive to provide clear, accurate information but do not guarantee that:
-
All content is complete, current, or error-free

Use of this website is at your own risk.
Age Restriction
Our services and this website are intended for adults 18 years and older. We do not knowingly provide services to minors.
No-Show, Cancellation, and Refund Policy
We reserve appointment times specifically for you. Because we are a small, time-based practice, late cancellations and no-shows affect access for other patients.
The summary below aligns with our full policy and Carepatron booking settings.
General Principles
-
Payment is collected at the time of booking.
-
Cancellations and refunds are based on how far in advance you cancel.
-
All times are based on Eastern Time (ET).
Acute Telehealth Visits
-
These visits are high-demand and same-day or near same-day.
-
If you cancel or do not attend your acute/urgent telehealth visit after booking, the visit is non-refundable, due to limited appointment slots.
-
If we must cancel or reschedule for our own reasons (illness, technical issues on our side), you will be offered a reschedule or refund.
Chronic Care Visits & Follow-Up Visits
-
New or established chronic care visits must be canceled or rescheduled at least 24 hours before the appointment time to receive a full refund or credit.
-
Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the appointment, or no-shows, are not refundable.
Metabolic Reset
Because these visits involve more preparation and are often part of ongoing programs:
-
All Metabolic Reset appointments must be canceled at least 24 hours in advance to receive a full refund or credit.
-
Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the appointment, and no-shows, are not refundable for these services.
Late Arrival
-
We allow a 5-minute grace period from your scheduled start time.
-
If you are more than 5 minutes late, we may not be able to complete the visit and it may be treated as a no-show, with no refund provided.
-
If you join your telehealth visit late but within 5 minutes, the appointment will still end at its scheduled time.
Extenuating Circumstances
We understand that emergencies happen. In rare, documented situations (e.g., serious illness, true emergencies), we may, at our discretion:
-
Offer a one-time courtesy refund, or
-
Offer a one-time courtesy reschedule
These exceptions are not guaranteed and are considered on a case-by-case basis.
HSA/FSA Payments & Receipts
If you have a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), you may be able to use those funds to pay for eligible medical services.
-
Eligibility is determined by your individual plan, not by Green Care Everywhere.
-
Upon request, we can provide a detailed receipt that includes diagnosis codes and procedure descriptions, which you can submit to your HSA/FSA or insurer.
-
We cannot guarantee that your plan will reimburse you and we are not responsible for denied claims.

We may update these policies from time to time to reflect changes in:
-
Laws or regulations
