This visit allows you to go over any concerns you or your care circle might have since your discharge. You are able to do your virtual appointment from the comfort of your own home. If not already done, prior to discharge, you will be contacted by the virtual transition team to schedule that first appointment, which you can do through the MyBSWHealth app or a text to your smart phone. While you are in the hospital your medical team will introduce you to the program, and if appropriate, place a referral for a virtual video appointment.The Virtual Transitions team will connect with certain hospitalized patients as they transition home, but before they have an appointment with their regular provider, hopefully to avoid any issues that might result in a return to the hospital. We are making that transition easier with a virtual team to help you bridge your care from hospital to home. If you need care now, an on-call provider can treat a variety of issues, including:īeing in the hospital is a tough burden for anyone, and being discharged is exciting, but can also be somewhat scary. Now you can see your primary care provider or specialist for normal office visits. We are expanding our virtual care offerings as part of our telehealth service. What can be treated at a telemedicine video visit? To schedule an online doctor appointment video visit in MyBSWHealth, select Video Visit from the home screen and follow the prompts to complete the virtual doctor booking process. You can schedule a video visit directly through MyBSWHealth, or you can call your doctor to determine if a video visit is right for you. This telemedicine visit could be with your established doctor, or a new doctor or a Baylor Scott & White Health provider on call. This virtual doctor visit is just like a traditional office visit where you choose which doctor you will see. This kind of virtual care lets you complete a face-to-face visit with your doctor using a camera-enabled device. One of our telehealth offerings is called Video Visit.
