Telehealth Virtual Visits

On-demand care with United Healthcare Telehealth Virtual Visits is a great option when Rock Care is closed and is an alternative to urgent care and emergency room visits.  It provides you and your enrolled dependents (no age limitations) access to U.S. board-certified doctors to receive the treatment you need in an easy and timely manner.  In addition, you have the ability to send your visit results to Rock Care or your primary care physician.  Access myuhc.com or the United Healthcare app to get started.

*Telehealth Virtual Visits are not designed to replace or act as a primary care physician; only to supplement access to affordable, quality care when needed.  Potential overuse (3+ visits in 90 days or 8 per 12 months) is monitored and where appropriate outreach is made to remind the member that Telehealth Virtual Visits services compliment, but do not replace, hands-on physician care.
