      Frequently Asked Questions:

       

      ❓ When will the billing start for Telehealth Pro?
      • Billing for Telehealth Pro will start from February the 1st, 2025 onwards, on your next subscription billing date. You can find your account billing date in your account Settings menu > Subscription > Subscription Information. 
        • For example, if your subscription billing date is the 21st of each month, your Telehealth Pro subscription billing will start off the 21st of February, for the period of 21 February - 21 March, meaning that you will still be using Telehealth Pro for free until the 21st of February 2025. 
      ❓ How will the billing work if I enable or cancel Telehealth Pro in the middle of the monthly subscription period?
      • If you enable your Telehealth Pro subscription for the first time after February 2025, you will be billed on a pro-rata basis for the remainder of the first month. For subsequent months, you will be charged the full monthly subscription fee.
      • If you choose to cancel your Telehealth Pro subscription mid-month, you are able to do this via Settings > Communication > Communication Options. Once cancelled, you will still be able to use the Telehealth Pro calls until the end of the paid period, and you will be billed for the entire month. The Telehealth Pro settings form will show you the date when the paid period lapses.

      ❓ Where can I find more information about Zanda Telehealth Basic vs. Pro plans?
