Telehealth: A safe and Convenient Way to Get The Care You Need, When You Need It

Telehealth visits are one of the many ways UniCare helps you and your family get the medical care you need – anytime, anywhere. Telehealth lets you see a doctor through live chat or video on your phone, tablet or your computer. When you or your family members are not feeling well, you can connect with a doctor from the comfort of your home or personal space. You can also have telehealth visits with behavioral health providers

Telehealth services are free during COVID-19 emergency

To help our members stay safe at home during this challenging time, UniCare is covering all telehealth visits without any member costs for both medical and behavioral health care. Telehealth visits help prevent the spread of a virus in a physical clinical setting. It's a safe and effective way for you to see a doctor and receive guidance related to COVID-19 or other medical conditions.
