Video visits with your Providence healthcare provider!
Skip the waiting room! For your next appointment, visit your provider without leaving home or work — even when you’re out of town. All you need is access to a video-capable computer, tablet or smartphone.
Secure video appointments are ideal for follow-up visits, medication questions, test results or general questions. And they’re perfect when you need immediate medical attention from a trusted provider and you can’t visit your doctor’s office in person.

FAQ

Go to your Patient Portal now, or set up a Portal account.
How much will my video visit cost? Video visits are typically covered by your regular health insurance — you’ll enter your credit card information before the appointment and will be charged the same co-pay as an in-person visit. Note: Check with your insurance coverage to confirm that video visits are covered.
Is my video visit secure? Yes! The video technology uses bank-grade encryption. However, make sure you find a quiet, private place in your home or office for your appointment.
Important note about your first telemedicine visit — The Ohio State Medical Board now requires an initial in-person visit and physical examination before a patient is eligible for subsequent telemedicine appointments. To schedule a convenient initial in-person visit, and become an established Providence patient, call one of our practices listed below, or schedule an appointment online after registering at the Providence Patient Portal.
