Telehealth Option
Enhanced telehealth offerings
Your health is our priority. That’s why we’ve introduced a new telehealth service for patients of this practice. We have a team of nurse practitioners and care managers who provide rapid, convenient access to care and who can help monitor certain health conditions using new technologies. These providers practice in a telehealth hub and are connected to your care team. They are an extended part of this practice and are here to meet your acute health care needs. When you make an appointment, you may be connected to this telehealth primary care team in collaboration with your primary care provider.
We also offer a remote patient monitoring hypertension program through our connected primary care team. According to the World Health Organization, hypertension (high blood pressure) significantly increases risk for heart, brain, kidney, and other disease and is the leading cause of premature death worldwide. Less than half of adults with hypertension are diagnosed and treated and only 20% of those diagnosed have controlled hypertension. Our program provides a care manager and team of clinicians at the ready to help you take control of your blood pressure and minimize the risk of future heart, stroke, or kidney disease due to uncontrolled hypertension. You will receive urgent lab/diagnostic result follow-up and automated prescription refills, which gets routine prescription refills processed within average of four hours and out to the pharmacy to be filled…resulting in medication in your hands quicker.
