Donohoe Pediatrics

Donohoe Pediatrics charges a one-time registration fee per family, followed by an annual fee per child. All medical services fall under the membership, so families do not pay per visit. The practice offers a limited number of need-based free and reduced memberships for qualifying families. Contact the practice directly for current fee details.

Donohoe Pediatrics operates as an out-of-network provider and does not bill insurance for medical services. The membership covers those services in full. However, the practice uses insurance to bill directly for childhood vaccinations and flu shots. The practice also sends lab work requiring external processing through insurance. Upon request, the practice generates billing receipts that families can submit to their insurer for potential reimbursement on services like well-child and sick visits.

Membership covers unlimited in-office, phone, video, and telehealth visits, plus direct access to the physician team through a secure practice app. Each family receives a remote care device to share physical exam data with doctors during virtual visits. The membership also includes the first three newborn visits in the family's home and a home visit from a certified lactation consultant. The practice coordinates care with specialists and provides comprehensive well-child and sick visit care.

Yes. Donohoe Pediatrics has offered virtual care through its secure practice app since 2017.

The remote care device provided to each family expands what physicians can assess remotely. When families travel, the team provides as much care as safely possible by phone, text, and video, including prescriptions called in to local pharmacies or guidance toward local urgent care when needed.

The practice conducts the first three newborn visits in your home, at 3 to 5 days, two weeks, and one month after birth. A certified lactation consultant also visits your home as part of the membership. The practice encourages expectant parents to schedule a complimentary meet-and-greet before the baby arrives.

Donohoe Pediatrics strongly advocates for the American Academy of Pediatrics recommended vaccine schedule. The physicians view vaccination as one of the most important preventive measures in pediatric care. The practice administers standard childhood vaccinations and bills insurance directly for them. Flu shots for patients and household members also fall under insurance billing.
