How It Works
Virtual primary care is health care made easy. Once you pick a virtual primary care online doctor and schedule your first appointment, here’s what to expect:
Step 1: Before Your Visit
Because all visits are online via secure video connection, you don’t have to go to the doctor’s office or sit in a waiting room. Instead, just log in to
MyAtriumHealth by smartphone, tablet or computer a few minutes before your visit.
For the best experience, make sure you have a strong internet connection and your device’s camera, microphone and speakers are working. You also might need your health insurance card and a form of photo ID. For added privacy, consider using headphones.
Step 2: During Your Visit
Whether you’re managing a chronic condition, seeking care for something new or just trying to stay healthy, each visit is customized for your unique needs. Depending on the reason for your visit, your provider may ask how you're feeling, explain recent labs and testing, and even examine certain physical symptoms.
Step 3: After Your Visit
At the end of your visit, your provider will go over next steps for your care. They’ll also begin coordinating any follow-up visits if needed.
