CoxHealth Offers Free Virtual Visits for COVID-19

March 18, 2020, 4:06 pm

CoxHealth is offering free Virtual Visits to people experiencing COVID-19 symptoms (fever over 100.4, cough and shortness of breath) starting Monday, March 16 and ending March 30, 2020.

To be evaluated, individuals should simply use code COVID when beginning a Virtual Visit. If a provider feels a patient should be tested, he or she will make a referral so that testing may be conducted.

The availability of Virtual Visits to anyone, regardless of insurance or ability to pay, aligns with public health goals of keeping the disease from spreading throughout the community. This approach also prevents the spread of illness in medical facilities, and protects the local health care workforce so they can be ready to help those who need assistance.
