## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-19 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> ## Start here: check your EHR before you buy anything
> 
> For most clinics the right answer isn't a standalone telehealth product - it's the telehealth module already in your EHR. Standalone video tools mean re-entering visit notes and codes by hand afterward; embedded ones write straight into the chart and the billing queue.
> 
> - **athenaTelehealth (if you're on athenaOne)** - fully embedded: schedule, document, and bill a visit without leaving athenaOne, using the patient email/text channels you already have. Supports up to four participants for family or interpreters. ([athenahealth](https://www.athenahealth.com/solutions/athenaone/enhancements/telehealth))
> - **healow TeleVisits (if you're on eClinicalWorks)** - same logic: video runs through the healow patient app and everything patients submit imports into the eCW chart. ([Health Exec](https://healthexec.com/topics/patient-care/telehealth/eclinicalworks-introduces-telehealth-solution-healow-mobile-app))
> - **Epic** clinics should look at MyChart video visits, plus the Epic Toolbox route below.
> 
> ## If you need a standalone platform
> 
> 1. **Doxy.me** - the default for small and mid-size clinics. Browser-based, nothing for patients to in
