If you’re feeling unwell and want quick access to care, use telehealth. Telehealth connects you to a provider via phone or video call — saving you a trip to the doctor’s office. If you want to use telehealth, here’s what to do:
- Check in with your primary care provider (PCP) to find out if they offer virtual care.
- If your PCP doesn’t offer virtual care, or you’re unable to get a timely appointment, IEHP provides MD Live as an option.
- If your child is a K-12 student, they might be eligible for Hazel Health. Check if Hazel is offered in your school district.
If you’re not sure about the right care option for you, you can call the IEHP 24-Hour Nurse Advice Line at 1-888-244-IEHP (4347) for help. TTY users can call 711.
