Virtual Health Care for Students
About Our Telemedicine Program
Crowley ISD is doing everything in its power to protect the health and safety of students as we return to classes this fall. Because of this, the district has partnered with Virtual Care for Families to make it possible for your child to be treated under the care of a pediatrician or pediatric-specialized provider right in the school nurse’s office through two-way video conference. By registering, your child will have access to a pediatric provider who can test for COVID-19, give treatment for the flu, colds, sore throat, fever and more.
How does it work?
1. Get Registered: Register your student for the SchoolMed telemedicine program at virtualcarefamilies.com/schoolmed.
2. Receive Care Immediately: If your student is in need of care while at school, they can quickly be seen by a pediatrician or pediatric specialized provider through secure two-way video conference in the nurse's office. If needed, on-site testing can be conducted for conditions such as COVID-19, the flu, and strep throat and care can be provided immediately.
3. Get Well Sooner: If needed, we can send a prescription to a pharmacy near you. We can also provide a full visit summary, and if desired, send the visit notes to your primary care physician.
How much does it cost?
Most visits will be delivered at little to no cost to the families.
Medicaid: All Texas Medicaid plans are accepted and most visits for Medicaid covered patients will cost $0.*
TRICARE: Prime members typically pay $0 for use of this service and other TRICARE members pay an affordable fee per visit. Virtual Care for Families is a TRICARE authorized provider and in-network with all TRICARE plans.
Commercial Insurance: Virtual Care for Families is in-network with most major plans (BCBS, UHC, Cigna, Aetna, Humana, etc.) and a telemedicine visit for your child typically costs the same as a normal trip to your child’s pediatrician office. The visit will be automatically billed to your child’s insurance company with no action needed by the parent or guardian.*
No Insurance: Virtual Care for Families will offer charity care for children who are without insurance and who are enrolled in the Free and Reduced Meal Program. All other students without health insurance will be offered a cash pay discounted rate of $50.

Illness Policy
To protect other students from contagious illnesses, students infected with certain diseases are not allowed to come to school while contagious. Crowley ISD's Illness Policy is based on recommendations of the Department of State Health Services.
Students will be sent home from school if the school nurse or designated health care personnel see signs/symptoms of contagious illness. It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to make arrangements for student pick up in a timely manner when they are called saying the student is ill. A letter will be sent home with the student outlining further instructions regarding re-admittance to school.
Some examples (not an all inclusive list) of a student who may have a communicable disease are:
- Body temperature above 100.0 degrees
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Undiagnosed rash
- Discoloration and/or drainage of the eyes
The school health personnel is responsible to use his/her clinical judgment when interpreting signs and symptoms for disease.
The parent will be notified, and the student will be sent home. In the case of communicable disease, proper physician documentation may be required for the student to re-enter school. This is for the student’s protection as well as the protection of others in the school. This procedure will ensure that he/she will not be exposed to other illnesses while his immunities are down and he/she will not be contaminating other students with their current illness.
Once a student is sent home with signs/symptoms of contagious illness he may not return to school until:
- Fever free for 24 hours without needing fever reducing medication like ibuprofen or acetaminophen
- No vomiting or diarrhea for 24 hrs
- With proper physician documentation if instructed
Health clinic personnel should notify the attendance office if a student is sent home for illness and if they are not to be allowed to return the next day. It is still the responsibility of the parent/guardian to call the attendance office if their student is out sick.

Asthma 411
Asthma 411 is a collaboration between CISD and UNTHSC to improve prevention, education and intervention efforts for students experiencing symptoms of asthma resulting in improved student health, and subsequently improved attendance and achievement.
Asthma is one of the leading causes of student absenteeism. This program will allow all CISD campuses health clinics to have albuterol for inhalation and the tools to administer the medication in case of an emergency.

Epinephrine
Anaphylaxis (pronounced “an-a-fi-lax-is”) is a potentially severe or life-threatening allergic reaction that can occur very quickly—as fast as within a couple of minutes of exposure to the allergen.
It can be triggered by an allergy to a particular food (peanuts or shellfish, for example), biting or stinging insects (like bees), medication (penicillin is a common one), latex (the type of rubber many balloons are made from) or a variety of other allergic triggers.
Crowley school health clinics will now have the medication epinephrine on each campus to administer in case of a life threatening anaphylactic emergency during the school day. Emergency services will be called if the medication is administered, however this allows a faster initial response by trained staff.
