    Given that many doctors are only conducting appointments via video, refusing this could be seen as refusing to comply.

    You can, of course, explain that you don’t have the technology to fulfil this request, but if you have a work laptop or smartphone, you are SOL.

    Whatever you are using to type on Boards should be able to be used for a video call. Smartphone, laptop, tablet should be able to access the call. Probably best to comply with the video call to save yourself the stress of worrying about it.

    You can join a Zoom call from your browser, no need to download the app.
