This service allows face time with physicians anytime, anywhere. An e-visit parallels a doctor visit enabling patients to speak with doctors in the location of your choosing; using a computer, tablet, or smartphone connected to the internet to carry out the appointment. This increases a patient’s engagement and accessibility to healthcare which has been shown to strengthen patient outcomes and satisfaction. Our providers use this service to enhance CC4PM’s excellent patient care model.
Patient safety and security is our number one priority. By connecting to e-visits through the AdvancedMD Patient Portal it’s important that personal information is protected. Whether the patient is completing a routine appointment, discussing an upcoming procedure, or consulting pain management options, they can speak freely knowing their appointment is confidential. A patient’s trust is highly valued at CC4PM and that value is emphasized in all parts of our practice.
