Preparing For & Participating in a Telehealth Visit with Your Healthcare Provider
Boice-Willis Clinic is dedicated to providing you access to the best healthcare available. We are excited to introduce Televisit. Televisit is a virtual visit that allows you to receive care from the comfort of your home, an alternative way to communicate with your provider.
A growing number of Boice-Willis providers are expanding their services to include Televisits. Staying compliant with the CDC and DHHS regulations, we are hoping this will bring the closeness back to providing our community with virtual communications for your healthcare needs. We have three different ways to participate in a virtual visit with your provider: a link via SMS text or email, BWC Patient Portal and the Healow APP. If you are interested in participating in a Telehealth Visit, call your provider to schedule. Please know if you haven't been seen by a BWC provider in three years or you need to register to become a patient, after scheduling your appointment please complete a Patient Registration Form.
