What is a video visit?

As an established WVU Medicine patient, you may be able to see your provider without leaving home. Many WVU Medicine providers now offer video outpatient care appointments via a smartphone or webcam-equipped computer. Services available include primary care and pediatric visits, as well as more specialized care.

With video appointments, you or your child can:

  • receive an examination, diagnosis, and treatment from a WVU Medicine provider
  • receive an after-visit summary containing a care plan and any follow-up instructions, including referrals for a specialist visit or diagnostic imaging
  • have prescriptions recommended by their video provider sent to the pharmacy of their choice
