In April UBMD Obstetrics & Gynecology, along with the entire UBMD Physicians’ Group, launched UBMD CareConnect, a new telemedicine service for its patients. UBMD CareConnect provides access to the vital care patients need without having to come to the office.
Telemedicine visits are conducted via video or phone call, depending on the patient’s appointment, need and the patient’s available resources. For each visit, the patient’s provider will determine if the appointment can be done by video call, phone call or if an in-person visit is required.
UBMD CareConnect video visits can be accessed from smartphones, tablets, laptops and desktop computers.
On a case-by-case basis, as determined by the provider, appointments may be done in-person. If during the pandemic, a patient’s appointment isn’t eligible for UBMD CareConnect and an in-person visit is determined, all UBMD spaces have been safeguarded for both our patients and team members. Numerous protocols for COVID-19 screenings and protection measures have been implemented, as well as already rigorous cleaning practices have been enhanced to ensure safety.
And as we all emerge from the pandemic, call us to set up or to reschedule an appointment. We are right there with our patients as we always have been, aligning with the latest clinical guidelines for patient care no matter if in person or via telemedicine. Whether you are at home, in our offices or in the hospital, you will always receive the same world class standard of care UBMD is known for.
