True Health Pediatrics welcomes patients regardless of their insurance plan. The practice does not bill insurance for membership fees, but members can still use their insurance for outside services like specialist referrals or hospital visits. Medicaid patients can pay practice fees directly and keep their Medicaid coverage for services outside the practice. The practice does not enroll Medicare patients due to regulatory requirements.

Yes. True Health Pediatrics accepts payments from Health Savings Accounts, Flexible Spending Accounts, and Health Reimbursement Arrangements. This makes the monthly membership accessible for many families who already set aside pre-tax dollars for healthcare expenses.

Members communicate directly with Dr. Cherian by text, email, phone, or video through a secure telemedicine app. The app stays available after hours for urgent concerns. Many questions and minor issues resolve without an office visit, saving families time.

True Health Pediatrics offers same-day and next-day appointment availability for members. Visits run 30 to 60 minutes with no crowded waiting rooms. After-hours appointments are also available as needed.

The practice caps its panel at 500 patients. A typical primary care panel runs between 2,000 and 3,000 patients. Keeping the panel at 500 allows Dr. Cherian to offer same-day access, unhurried visits, and direct communication to every family.

Yes. Dr. Cherian offers both home visits and telemedicine appointments. Virtual visits work well for quick check-ins or when a child is sick at home and the family prefers not to come in. Members pay no additional charge for either type of visit.

Yes. Dr. Cherian is a certified civil surgeon and performs immigration medical exams at True Health Pediatrics. The exam costs $275 for adults 18 and older and $200 for patients under 18. The practice only schedules immigration exams for Pennsylvania residents. A membership is not required to book this service.

Yes. True Health Pediatrics partners with Blomdahl USA to provide safe, sterile medical ear piercings. The service uses titanium and medical-grade plastic earrings that reduce the risk of nickel allergies and suit sensitive skin. Each appointment includes the piercing, aftercare wipes, and a first set of earrings. No membership is required to schedule.

True Health Pediatrics draws labs in-house and offers onsite point-of-care testing for RSV, flu, COVID, strep, and urine. Through the FreedomDoc network, the practice also provides access to deeply discounted cash-based labs at national partner facilities. Members can submit lab orders to their insurance as well if they prefer.
