Telemedicine is a safe and convenient way to have an appointment with your UPMC provider from the comfort of home.
We have many ways to see a doctor without making a trip to their office.
A video visit is like an office visit. Your doctor will allow the same amount of time for your visit, but instead of sitting in a doctor's office, you're in the comfort of your own home.
You can see your doctor online for many of the same reasons you'd have an in-person appointment.

If you live outside of the Pittsburgh area, you can receive specialty care virtually at a UPMC Outpatient Telemedicine Center. We have several centers where we can connect you to UPMC specialists virtually — without having to travel to the city.
When you arrive at a UPMC Outpatient Telemedicine Center, a nurse will take you to an exam room with a large screen. They'll check your blood pressure and weight and ask questions about your health, your medications, and any concerns you may have. Then, a doctor will appear on the screen via a secure video call, and the nurse will send real-time info.
An E-Visit is an online alternative to a traditional office visit for certain non-emergency conditions. For an E-Visit, you complete a simple questionnaire in your portal about your symptoms for common health conditions. A provider then reviews your submission and provides an online diagnosis and treatment plan.
This visit differs from a video visit, which is when you connect with a provider who walks through your concerns in real-time.
