All of our virtual care options allow you to be seen quickly using your smartphone, tablet or computer:
Virtual Primary Care
Virtual Urgent Care
Our virtual primary care providers can be a key part of your ongoing medical care team.
All of the information from your virtual care visit will be recorded in your MyChart and medical record for easy access by you and your care team at MUSC Health.
Your virtual primary care provider will follow up after your visit, as needed. The next time you need a visit, you can select them within MUSC Health MyChart or from the MUSC Health provider directory to continue your care relationship.
All of the care you receive from your virtual primary care provider is coordinated with other care team members at MUSC Health. You will always be directed to the most appropriate type of care for your specific needs.
If your health concern is of an urgent nature, select our virtual urgent care feature. You will be able to see a provider by video or chat.
Virtual primary care visits are covered by any in-network health plan, including Medicare and Medicaid. If you don’t have insurance, you can also pay $80 a visit.
Providers are specially trained to conduct consultations with patients over video visits. During these visits, the provider may ask about symptoms, medical history, and any concerns you may have. They may also provide instructions for self-examination or use specialized equipment that you have access to, such as a smartphone with a high-resolution camera.
MUSC Health has partnered with Ovatient to bring you fast, convenient virtual care. Because Ovatient uses its own medical record system, you’ll need to create a separate MyChart account when you sign up. Once your Ovatient MyChart account is created, you can easily link your MUSC Health and Ovatient accounts, so everything stays connected. Once linked, you’ll see all your test results, medications, appointments, and messages in one place. This also helps your providers coordinate your care seamlessly.
Yes! Linking your MUSC Health and Ovatient MyChart accounts is easy and gives your care team a complete, up-to-date view of your health. With accounts linked, you can see test results, medications, appointments, and messages from both organizations in one place, and your providers can coordinate care more easily.
How to link (web or app)
Depending on your condition and your provider’s expert opinion, a wide variety of prescriptions can be prescribed for you during your video visit. However, we do not prescribe controlled substances or opioids.
