Diagnostic Imaging Q & A

How does telehealth streamline diagnostic testing?

Your Core Virtual Medicine provider makes healthcare simpler by performing a thorough evaluation during a telehealth consultation and then ordering your tests. They may send an order to a lab, direct you to a local facility for blood draws or imaging, or even order at-home tests, such as a sleep apnea kit for home sleep testing.

Once they get the results, you’ll have follow-up telehealth visits to discuss them securely from the comfort of your home.

How can diagnostic testing benefit me?

Diagnostic testing helps turn your symptoms into actionable answers, and telehealth makes the process even more convenient. Symptoms like fatigue, snoring, shortness of breath, or poor sleep can have many causes. Testing helps your provider:

Confirm or rule out specific conditions
Avoid unnecessary treatments
Create a targeted care plan that considers your comfort and convenience

Home-based testing means you can avoid overnight lab stays for certain conditions and experience less disruption to your routine. This is especially helpful for sleep-related conditions, where your “normal” sleep matters.

Using telehealth to facilitate your diagnostic testing often reduces delays by:

Eliminating travel time
Streamlining scheduling
Allowing quicker follow-up appointments

Once results are available, your provider can recommend lifestyle changes, prescribe treatments or devices, and refer you for additional testing if needed.

How long does it take to get my diagnostic testing results?

Turnaround times vary by test, but telehealth often speeds things up. For home sleep apnea tests, your results may be available within a few days to a week after you return the device or upload the data.

If you need lab-based tests or imaging, your results may take several days to 1-2 weeks, depending on the facility.

Once your results are ready, the team notifies you and schedules a telehealth visit with your provider to go over the test findings in detail. This is a great time to ask questions, discuss next steps, and get the guidance you need.

Telehealth dovetails the medical expertise of your Core Virtual Health provider with modern convenience. Whether you need home testing or coordinated lab work, the team aims to make your experience as simple, efficient, and patient-centered as possible.
