One of the great benefits of this program is that it’ s actually much easier to connect with your provider- especially in the manner that you prefer – by text, video, in person, phone, or patient portal.
Your provider will be available after hours or on weekends for urgent or emergency situations. All other inquiries would be responded to on the next business day.
At this time we are not offering home visits to our patients. Additionally, our providers do not provide any services at the hospital.
First, you’ll see your primary care provider to discuss your health issue (same as your current situation). If needed, your provider will refer you to a specialist.
What’ s different is that your provider is able to remain actively involved in your health issue. The provider can follow up with the specialist, is available to discuss your treatment options, and can work with you to schedule follow-up visits and/or coordinate discussions with the specialist.
Having your primary care provider, a trained clinician who knows your entire health situation in detail, at your side as an active advocate can be enormously comforting and helpful to you, as you make important medical decisions.
No. The Providers are not privileged for in-hospital care currently. When you are hospitalized the team of providers that staff the hospital will be assigned to you by the hospital and they will directly manage your care during your stay. The providers will work closely with the doctors caring for you in the hospital to ensure good continuity of your care in and out of the hospital.
The providers will not be offering home visits at this time. The Providers will be able to provide video based visits while you are at home to efficiently address your issues as they come up.
