FAQs

Your Enhanced Primary Care Questions Answered

Virtual primary care solutions offer urgent sick visits, scheduled chronic condition visits, and preventive care for whole-person health guidance all via phone or video. Employers can provide virtual primary care to employees and their dependents for easy, affordable access to care.

Primary care allows trusted doctors to provide high-quality healthcare to patients — including preventive treatment, medication management, and support for chronic disease and whole-person wellness. Personal barriers such as cost, travel, time off work or arranging childcare deter people from seeking care.  A Primary Care Physician shortage is also a barrier to getting care.

Virtual primary care removes these barriers and offers patients access to convenient healthcare, encouraging usage to save on healthcare costs down the line.
