Many telehealth appointments are conducted via Zoom.
We are often asked: Can I add an interpreter to a telehealth Zoom call? The answer is “yes.”
In fact, we’ve created a free guide that provides a simple, step-by-step process. We invite you to download, “Zoom: How to Add an On-Call Interpreter to Your Zoom Meeting.”
You do not need an appointment to have an interpreter join your meeting. Our medically-trained interpreters are available on demand and are here to serve you when you need them most.
This is not voice-to-transcription. We have a team of more than 20,000 live, professional interpreters who can assist in more than 240 languages. These interpreters are available via video and audio-only.
