First, What is an Online Doctor Visit?

You're probably thinking, "I know what this is."

And just in case you don't, an online doctor visit is a visit with a clinician you take from a computer or smartphone. They are also called virtual visits.

At CHRISTUS Health, we have two types of virtual visits. 

 

 

1. First, we have the traditional online scheduling with a primary care doctor.

You can schedule a time to meet. 

 

2. Second, we have On Demand Care.

What is On Demand Care, you ask?

It is a video visit on your demand. All you do is log into your MyCHRISTUS account, and you can see the next available clinician in under 30 minutes.

Oh yeah… it is also only $30.

We see children from five years old and up.

This is designed for the busy parent who doesn't have time to wait. 

This is for the busy professional who needs relief quickly.

Efficient, Effective Healthcare for All

But here's the thing: we need to ensure that everyone can benefit from this revolution in healthcare.

A recent U.S. Department of Health and Human Services study found that while telehealth use grows, it still needs to be more equitable across all groups.

We need to work together to ensure that the benefits of telehealth reach everyone.

The future of healthcare is here, and it's on-demand. It's time to say goodbye to long waits and hello to efficient, effective healthcare. Are you ready to join the revolution? Start your first video visit today.
