Telehealth Q&A

What is telehealth?

Telehealth provides one-on-one access to experienced medical providers through a confidential online platform.

The virtual service provides an opportunity to speak directly with a physician about unexpected symptoms or health concerns without traveling to a medical facility.

Reagan Medical Center provides telehealth visits for adults and children. The experienced medical team uses the virtual platform for a range of preventive and urgent care services.

How do I use telehealth?

Telehealth allows you to meet with the Reagan Medical Center team on a secure virtual platform at a pre-scheduled appointment time. You access the online platform with your smartphone, computer, or tablet and a high-speed internet connection.

The platform features video conferencing technology, so you can see your provider in person. The team can provide the medical guidance you need when you’re too sick or unable to travel to the office. They also electronically offer copies of your medical records and test results through the telehealth system.

Telehealth saves you time and money. Virtual appointments also make it easier to keep up with medical appointments when you have a busy schedule or are traveling.

Which services are available through telehealth?

Reagan Medical Center offers telehealth services to accommodate the busy schedules of individuals and families.

The providers can meet with you online to evaluate new health issues and follow up on your treatment plan. You may be able to meet with the team through the telehealth platform for services like:

  • Symptom evaluation
  • Prescription refills
  • Treatment monitoring
  • Pain management
  • Review of test results
  • Referrals to specialists
  • Smoking cessation support
  • Weight loss counseling

The team can also meet with you virtually to answer any questions about your general health or your treatment plan. 

For instance, if you experience unwanted side effects from a new medication, you can meet with the team on the telehealth platform to discuss switching medications or other treatment changes.

If you’re unsure whether you need in-office care or a hospital visit for an urgent medical situation, speak directly with your provider through telehealth before leaving home.
