By: Saint Alphonsus Health System "We're extremely excited about offering this telemedicine technology to the public," said Dr. Michael Graff, one of the medical providers seeing patients through MyeVisit. "This product will improve access to allow those looking to save time, money, and a trip to the urgent care clinic a way to conveniently access medical care through their smartphone, tablet, or other device all while maintaining the best clinical quality available." MyeVisit is available 7 days per week to adults and children in Idaho or Oregon looking to receive care from a licensed medical provider. The average time it takes to complete a MyeVisit session is 25 minutes, and the service charges a $45 flat fee to a credit or debit card*. The MyeVisit service is currently designed to diagnose and treat 13 conditions ranging from sinus infections to bladder/urinary tract infections, with plans to offer more conditions for treatment in the future. MyeVisit medical providers also maintain communication about diagnoses and treatment with a patient's primary care medical providers, allowing a seamless continuity between MyeVisit and their established medical provider. "Patients with minor to moderate medical conditions are expecting an easier way to access medical providers for treatment," said Rodney Reider, President and CEO of Saint Alphonsus. "MyeVisit is the future of medical service – leveraging technology to provide convenient, quick, and quality care."
