Tytohome Appointment
What to expect: We have partnered with TytoCare to offer a device which will fully integrate with our telemedicine program. This may benefit our families who live farther away! We wanted to let you know that Shine Pediatrics can now conduct remote medical exams, so you don’t have to leave your home or worry while traveling. This revolutionary way to provide medical care is convenient and safe.
Using the TytoCare device Shine Pediatrics Providers are able to remotely:
– Listen to lung and heart sounds from the comfort of your home
– View the ear canal and eardrum to identify ear infections or causes of ear pain
– Monitor heart sounds
– Look at the throat and tonsils
– Measure heart rate and body temperature
– See images of the skin to assess insect bites, eczema, and other rashes
– Listen for abnormal belly sounds
– Complete Well Child Exams for ages 4 mo – 13 yr
– Conduct Lab reviews & Integrative Medical Visits
Please be aware that if your provider feels that an in-person exam or testing is required for optimal levels of care, then you will be asked to make a visit to one of our offices at your earliest convenience (This will not incur an additional cost.) For out of state patients needing labs, we will give you a lab order that you can take to a lab near your home.
To order the device please complete the following form: https://forms.gle/vb2MwSZJbj2VCSb9A

Insurance Coverage: This type of visit will usually incur a copay or be applied to your deductible by most insurance carriers. Please check with your health insurance carrier prior to your visit to learn more about your specific coverage.
