Finding and building a relationship with a Primary Care Physician (PCP) is one of the most important ways you can protect your health and well-being. If you do not have a PCP and need the convenience of seeing one virtually, a Teladoc Primary360 provider can offer you annual exams and preventive care; diagnose and treat health concerns; help manage chronic conditions; fill prescription medications; and refer you to in-network specialists. Choose a provider based on specialty, language, gender and/ or availability, and see this same provider throughout the course of your care. You’ll even get additional support from a Care Team, including registered nurses, medical assistants and care coordinators. Visit www.Teladoc.com or call (800) TELADOC (835-2362) to find your PCP today.
