Intermountain Connect Care 12.19.103

The Intermountain Connect Care app offers a convenient telehealth solution for individuals seeking urgent care services. With just a phone or tablet, you or your child can connect with a qualified clinician from Intermountain Healthcare. Connect Care is ideal for addressing cold or flu symptoms, sinus pain, sore throat, painful urination, minor rashes or skin issues, upset stomach, and other minor ailments. The best part is that you can access care 24/7/365, all for a reasonable fee of $69 per visit. Plus, many insurance plans are accepted.

Connect Care provides access to highly-trained and board-certified nurse practitioners and physician assistants with extensive experience in urgent care, clinics, and hospitals. They have received specialized training in telehealth to ensure that you receive quality care from the comfort of your own home. Your primary doctor will have access to the visit record and can easily incorporate it into your overall healthcare plan. Additionally, if necessary, prescriptions can be prescribed and delivered directly to your home or nearest pharmacy.

It's important to note that while Connect Care covers a wide range of conditions, it may not be suitable for all medical emergencies. If you are uncertain about the severity of your symptoms or experiencing any life-threatening situation, please seek immediate assistance at the nearest emergency room. Examples of conditions requiring emergency care include chest pain or pressure, uncontrolled bleeding, sudden or severe pain, coughing/vomiting blood, difficulty breathing, sudden neurological changes (e.g., dizziness, weakness, slurred speech), severe or persistent vomiting/diarrhea, changes in mental status (e.g., confusion), and instances of assault or abuse.

For those who use Apple Health, you have the option to import your health information directly into your Connect Care account. This includes data such as heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, blood glucose levels, weight, nutritional information, and respiratory rate. Integrating this information can provide a more comprehensive understanding of your health during your Connect Care visits.
