Online telemedicine visits — from the comfort of your home
GHP members: Get 24/7 virtual care
Have a health concern and need care now? We’re partnering with Teladoc to offer virtual doctor visits, including COVID-19 screenings.
If you need routine medical or behavioral health care, download the Teladoc app or call to connect with a Teladoc doctor from the comfort of your own home.
* Some members may not be eligible for behavioral health services through Geisinger Health Plan based on their benefits.
What is Teladoc?
Teladoc* is a telehealth service that connects you to board-certified, highly trained doctors who can diagnose and treat non-emergency issues right over the phone. No in-person visit needed, so you don’t even have to leave your house.
Need an Rx? No worries — a prescription can also be provided, if necessary.
What if I’m experiencing COVID-19 symptoms?
While most people who have COVID-19 will experience mild symptoms, Teladoc doctors can evaluate your risk and recommend next steps. If you believe you’re experiencing symptoms related to COVID-19, use Teladoc before heading to your doctor's office, urgent care clinic or the ER if your needs are non-emergent.
Geisinger continues to monitor the COVID-19 outbreak. To see the latest coronavirus updates, learn about coronavirus symptoms and more, visit our Coronavirus Resource Center.
Using a secure network, our board-certified doctors will advise, treat and diagnose you exactly the same way they would in a traditional office appointment, only in a live virtual visit.
It’s completely safe — and everything is right at your doctor’s fingertips for review and interpretation before and during your visit. All you need is a smartphone (iPhone or Android), tablet or computer with a webcam and speaker, along with a high-speed internet connection.
