As of Feb 1, 2025, virtual visits are billed at $0.16 per minute based on the actual length of the visit (older guidance listed a flat $10 fee for a 50-minute visit). Each session can include up to 4 approved visitors, including approved minor children. Be on your device 15 minutes early. All visits are recorded and monitored. Joining from prohibited locations (including bedrooms and bathrooms) or inappropriate behavior can end the visit and lead to discipline or loss of virtual privileges.
