Southcoast Health announces app to access a doctor by phone, video, or mobile app
[Source: fallriverreporter.com] Southcoast Health has launched a new virtual service that gives patients immediate access 24/7/365 to board-certified doctors through the convenience of phone, video or mobile app visits.
When patients cannot get an appointment with their primary care provider, or when urgent care is closed, they can now use Southcoast Health On Call. Southcoast Health On Call connects patients to virtual appointments with a licensed medical provider through the convenience of a mobile app. Typically, within minutes, a provider will contact the patient, ready to listen and diagnose the medical issue. If appropriate and medically necessary, a prescription will be sent to the patient’s choice of pharmacy.
