Virtual care and your health plan

Why On Demand Virtual Care Matters

Get care when you need it, without putting your day on hold. When you're feeling sick, have a health concern or need medical guidance, on-demand virtual care can help you connect with a clinician from wherever you are.

With eligible CHRISTUS Health Plan coverage, you may be able to access virtual care using your phone, tablet or computer. Instead of rearranging your schedule, driving to a clinic or waiting for an appointment, you can speak with a clinician from home, work or while traveling.

How On Demand Virtual Care Can Help

Virtual care may be a good option when you need:

  • Help with cold, flu or allergy symptoms
  • Care for minor illnesses
  • Follow-up visits
  • Answers to health questions
  • Guidance on next steps when you're not feeling well

Why Members Use Virtual Care

Virtual care can make healthcare easier by helping you:

  • Get care without leaving home
  • Avoid travel time
  • Fit healthcare into a busy schedule
  • Connect with a clinician when you're away from home
  • Get guidance sooner when symptoms start

A Convenient Option When Life Gets Busy

Health concerns do not always happen during convenient times. You may be balancing work, family responsibilities, school activities or travel. Virtual care gives you another way to get the care you need without spending time driving across town or sitting in a waiting room.

Check Your Plan Benefits

Review your CHRISTUS Health Plan benefits and virtual care options before you need them. Knowing how to access virtual care ahead of time can help you feel prepared when an unexpected health concern comes up.

This way, you can spend less time searching for care and more time focusing on feeling better.
