MedStar eVisit | Telehealth | MedStar Health

MedStar eVisit is MedStar Health’s telehealth platform for same-day urgent care with no appointment needed. It offers convenient medical care by board-certified healthcare providers through secure video. MedStar eVisit is available to you 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, and is for patients of all ages. Our team of MedStar Health physicians, physician assistants, and nurse practitioners provide access to care without an appointment for illnesses and injuries that do not require an in-person examination.

If testing is required and completed at a MedStar Health facility, your MedStar eVisit provider will provide specific directions and pre-arrival notifications.

MedStar eVisit providers can care for medical conditions, including colds, flu symptoms, COVID-19, fever, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, sinus pain, seasonal allergies, sore throat, red and painful eyes, headaches, rashes, and urinary tract infections. Our providers can also answer questions and address concerns about sexual health.

MedStar eVisit providers routinely see patients dealing with stress and anxiety and can help with basic stress-relieving techniques and help patients find other care sources for longer-term mental health needs.

A telehealth exam is different than an in-person exam. Still, there are many of the same elements that are important in making a diagnosis and treatment plan that can be performed by video. For example, your provider can assess your general appearance, check the back of your throat, examine your skin, and see how you move and speak.

Most patients who use MedStar eVisit can be treated; however, if an in-person visit is required, our providers can help direct you to the most appropriate care, i.e., urgent care or emergency services.
