With UHealth NOW, you can access a doctor from your home, office, or on the go- 24/7/365. Board Certified doctors can visit with you either by phone or secure video to help treat any non-emergency medical conditions. Doctors can diagnose your symptoms, prescribe medication, and send prescriptions to your pharmacy of choice.

No. UHealth NOW is designed to handle non-emergency medical issues. You should not use UHealth NOW if you are experiencing a medical emergency. In case of a medical life threatening emergency, you should dial 911 immediately.

Physicians are able to treat children 2 years and older and all adults via UHealth NOW. For children younger than 2, consider contacting the child's primary care doctor on-call, or for more urgent concerns visit an urgent care or emergency department in person.

Following each consultation, our members are given a survey to evaluate their provider and appointment.

The results are analyzed and reviewed for quality assurance and used as part of our continuous improvement process. Selected provider consultations are also reviewed by our internal medical board.

Yes, if the provider believes medication is warranted, he or she can write a prescription for non-narcotic medications (i.e. no controlled substances), which can be sent directly to the pharmacy of your choice. As soon your consultation is over, your prescription will be sent electronically to one of over 65,000 pharmacies to choose from. If for any reason your pharmacy is unable to receive e-prescriptions, a traditional prescription is generated for our providers to sign and fax. All prescriptions are fully compliant and include all required information.

Yes, UHealth NOW is safe and private. UHealth NOW is compliant with HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and will only share your information with your selected provider and pharmacy.
