the best thing I ever did was put a  lamp on a table in the  waiting room really nice atmosphere Just walking up the path  to the place it looks nice inside

 

I got my list from AAFP's book Opening A Practice or something like that.  Many supply lists are available in archives of this list serve.  Good luck.  Be aware you don't have to have it " spa " elegant to make it comfortable.  I have music on an old CD player, old chairs, nice pictures and poems on the walls and 2 cats.  I set the atmosphere, not the things.  I have patients " drop " in to sit in my waiting room and leave in twenty mintues after just taking a break or petting the cats, etc.

I just open the end of this year.

I didn't have everything at first and found out things which I needed after I was open,  I really needed because of the space/size or population served.

Where do you do the telemed?  are they hiring?

You might also check out this free business planning software.

https://www.enloop.com/

They also have an extensive list of potentially helpful links for small businesses.

There is a free website called Plan Cruncher that will summarize a business plan down to one page summary for those of use who like simple.

Good Luck,
