Virtual Urgent Care

MetroHealth has partnered with Ovatient to provide virtual care services for its patients.

Ovatient offers comprehensive and easy-to-access virtual health services — including primary care, urgent care, and integrated behavioral health. Our services are covered by any in-network health plan, including Medicare and Medicaid. Patients can also choose to pay with affordable and convenient cash options. With Ovatient, you build long-lasting relationships with trusted healthcare professionals and access quality care quickly, affordably and conveniently, no matter where you are. And if you need in-person care for things like tests and X-rays, we will smoothly connect you to the local health providers you trust at MetroHealth.

Ovatient’s Provider Team

Ovatient’s virtual care providers are specially trained to deliver personalized virtual care for you.

They are credentialed at MetroHealth and meet the standards of The National Committee for Quality Assurance, undergoing a rigorous quality review process. These dedicated virtual care providers leverage technology to provide virtual consultations, digital health engagement and remote patient monitoring.

Patients build long-lasting relationships with our providers. They can see you regularly, look at your past medical history and smoothly connect you to a trusted MetroHealth provider in person if needed. They can also send your prescriptions to the pharmacy you like, including delivering them right to your door through MetroHealth. This makes your health care more personal and tailored to you.

Same Day Care is designed for patients who require prompt attention for an issue that is important but not urgent or an emergency. This is ideal for concerns that need to be addressed the same day, such as ongoing symptoms or an established condition for which you need care that supports you until you see your Primary Care Provider.

Scheduled Primary Care is perfect if you are looking to build a lasting relationship with a primary care provider and allows for in-depth discussions about your overall health, preventive care, and the management of chronic conditions, all from the comfort of home or work.

If your health concern is of an urgent nature, you can choose “Get Care Now” from your MyChart account or the Virtual Urgent Care page. See our list of conditions and symptoms that are appropriate for Virtual Urgent Care.

Most virtual visits are in-network for any health insurance company that has contracted with MetroHealth, including Medicare and Medicaid. At the time of the visit, you will be asked to enter your insurance information and will only be asked to pay for the co-pay portion of your visit, if applicable. You can also choose to pay with affordable and convenient cash options.
