Virtual Care
Receive personalized healthcare when and where you want it
UW Medicine brings board-certified doctors to you through two virtual care offerings: telemedicine visits and on-demand virtual care.
Telemedicine Visits with UW Medicine Doctors
Visit a UW Medicine doctor like you would in person — by secure video instead. You’ll receive the same personalized medical care as you would in a face-to-face visit. Discuss your current health concerns, manage chronic conditions or receive a specialty consultation — from the comfort of your own home.
24/7 On-Demand Virtual Care with 98point6®
Receive the care you need 24/7 from board-certified doctors, provided by our partner 98point6®, who can diagnose and treat illnesses and injuries. Easily accessed by the text-based app, UW Medicine On-Demand Virtual Care offers anywhere, anytime healthcare that is coordinate with UW Medicine.
Telemedicine Visits with Our UW Medicine Doctors
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have greatly expanded our telemedicine services so patients can get the primary and specialty care they need from home. A UW Medicine telemedicine visit is a covered benefit for most insurance plans (double-check with your health insurer). All visits are safe, private and secure. And our UW Medicine interpreter services are available.
Schedule telemedicine visits for many health concerns, such as:
- Acute care (for an illness, injury or infection)
- Behavioral health
- Chronic conditions
- Follow-up care
- Medication management
- New pregnancy
- Pre-surgical evaluation
- Primary care check-up
- Reviewing test results with your doctor
In-person visits
Sometimes a physical examination is a necessary part of your doctor visit.
Schedule an in-person appointment for the following health concerns:
- Physical exams such as a pelvic exam
- Skin cancer check
- Injections, such as a flu shot
- And more
For in-person care, UW Medicine has made in-person appointments even safer with mask requirements, physical distancing, mandatory staff screening and more.
