Instead of going into a location and waiting for the next available appointment, you can arrive when it is your turn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are interested in a<strong> virtual visit<\/strong>, Samaritan has partnered with KeyCare to provide $59 self-pay, video visits 24\/7, 365 days a year, from anywhere in the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Video visits will be with KeyCare clinicians. KeyCare can prescribe medications (excluding controlled substances), but not laboratory or imaging tests. It is a great option to treat a wide range of minor, routine medical issues, including allergies, back pain, bites or stings, coughs, colds, fevers, flus, minor burns, headaches, constipation, nausea, vomiting, pink eye, sinus problems, sore throats, sprains and strains, urinary tract infections and tooth pain. There will be no direct billing to insurance at this time, just an up-front $59 payment. Patients with Medicare or Medicaid insurance are not eligible due to regulations prohibiting self-pay for covered benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are widening our virtual front door to help people get care more conveniently,\u201d said Samaritan Medical Group Chief Operating Officer Julie Osgood, DrPH. \u201cFor those who enjoy the ease of using their phone or computer to initiate care, these features can save time and improve their experience.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both features can be accessed through <a href=\"https:\/\/mychart.samhealth.org\/MyChart\/Authentication\/Login?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">samhealth.org\/MyChart<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/health-services\/all-services\/walk-in-care-virtual-care\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">samhealth.org\/CareNow<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<aside>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"360\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/woman-looks-at-phone-CO-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-cta size-cta wp-post-image\" alt=\"Woman looking at phone with cup of coffee in hand\" srcset=\"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/woman-looks-at-phone-CO-1.jpg 360w, https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/woman-looks-at-phone-CO-1-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/woman-looks-at-phone-CO-1-120x100.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 360px) 100vw, 360px\" \/><\/figure>\t\t<\/aside>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are two convenient ways to access walk-in care \u2014 with On My Way and a virtual visit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":40146,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_searchwp_excluded":"","_shs_workflow_notes":"","_shs_exclude_from_navigation":false,"_shs_promote_article_on_blogs":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"news-topics":[],"news-types":[272],"services":[265],"specialty":[31],"class_list":["post-40143","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","news-types-news","services-walk-in-same-day-care","specialty-emergency-medicine"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40143","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40143"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40143\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40143"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40143"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40143"},{"taxonomy":"news-topics","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-topics?post=40143"},{"taxonomy":"news-types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-types?post=40143"},{"taxonomy":"services","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/services?post=40143"},{"taxonomy":"specialty","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/samhealth.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/specialty?post=40143"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
