Ovatient’s Provider Team

All of our virtual care options allow you to be seen quickly using your smartphone, tablet or computer:
Scheduled Virtual Primary Care Visit
All the care you receive from your virtual care provider is coordinated with other care team members at MetroHealth.
You will always be directed to the most appropriate type of care for your specific needs. The virtual visit is simply a more convenient way for you to start your care.
All of the information from your virtual urgent care visit will be recorded in your MyChart account for easy access by you or your regular care provider.
Your regular provider will receive notes on all care you receive during your Virtual Urgent Care visit.
Virtual care visits take place through video calls but can include phone calls and secure messaging in MyChart.
Same Day Care is designed for patients who require prompt attention for an issue that is important but not urgent or an emergency. This is ideal for concerns that need to be addressed the same day, such as ongoing symptoms or an established condition for which you need care that supports you until you can see your Primary Care Provider.
Scheduled Primary Care is perfect if you are looking to build a lasting relationship with a virtual primary care provider. A scheduled appointment allows for in-depth discussions about your overall health, preventive care, and the management of chronic conditions.
Ovatient’s team of dedicated virtual care professionals only provide virtual care. This means they are specifically trained to see people virtually and are skilled in the use of the tools and practices associated with providing sound medical care online.
This involves a focus on virtual consultations, digital health monitoring, and remote patient engagement.
Most virtual visits are in-network for any health insurance company that has contracted with MetroHealth, including Medicare and Medicaid. At the time of the visit, you will be asked to enter your insurance information and will only be asked to pay for the co-pay portion of your visit, if applicable. You can also choose to pay with affordable and convenient cash options.
