A coworker used this service and mentioned it to me - so glad she did! Everything was seamless. I was connected with a doctor within a few minutes of setting up my account, and he was able to help with my concern. Would highly recommend and definitely use again!
Due to my work schedule I didn't have time to visit my pcp. This anywhere care is very convenient and helpful. This way I don't have to spend extra to go to urgent care and subject myself to the cold weather. I can get treatment from home.
Considering how technology can make life easier, I found the setup of this app disconnected and error prone. After providing my UPMC insurance information to this UPMC Anywhere Care app, I was troubled that I had to manually enter every last character of my insured dependent children’s information into this app. This app DID take the time to connect with my insurance to notify me that I had made an error, but didn’t provide the opportunity to simply import my dependent children’s insurance information correctly and in one step. I have not yet had the need to use the app for its primary purpose, so I cannot comment on it’s performance otherwise.
After you download the app and fill in the information (the birthdate was the only funky part; I had to change the year first before the month or date could be altered) quit the app and open it up again. A few more steps and bang, I had my first video appointment at a fraction of the cost of urgicare! Soooo much faster, too!
I downloaded and used this for the first time last night. I have UPMC insurance and ended up with a $13 copay when it was all said and done.
Initial setup sucked and going thru the process of symptoms took a bit however it was only about 5 min after and I was talking with a PA total time about 15min from symptom questioner to talking with dr. Worth it to me especially since it only cost me $10 and didn’t have to sit in a waiting room for hours
This is living in the 21st century! I have little kids, which means I’m always busy and get more than my fair share of colds and sinus infections. Instead of an hour round trip to the nearest urgent care, I got a courteous provider who listened to my symptoms and prescribed me a path out of my sinus infection in under five minutes. No waiting in line, no gross waiting room, no hauling my kids around, no problem.
I installed the app quickly and setup was easy. Had a virtual MD visit and the whole process was speedy.
I have a miserable head cold/sinus infection so of course my doctor’s office is closed this week. Instead of having to drag myself to the urgent care center all I had to do was fill out my info and talk to the Doctor over my iPhone camera. It was so fast and easy. SO much easier than going to an appointment. And I don’t have to spread my germs around. My prescription is already ready! I love this app!
This app is awesome! Way better than taking 3 children to the dr office for only 1 sick kid. No issues with the video or sound. Definitely would recommend!!
