Schedule a Telehealth appointment
The first step is to call and schedule a TeleHealth visit with your provider.
For many people today, telemedicine is a convenient and effective way to see their healthcare provider. Before beginning your TeleHealth visit, make sure that you:
- Have an active Patient Portal account, with username and password. Contact our call center at 847-257-8614 if you need help with an account.
- Set aside a secure, private location.
To begin your TeleHealth visit, follow these easy steps:
1
“Arrive early” for your appointment by logging in to your Patient Portal, either on your computer or through the Healow app on your smart phone. If you can’t access the Portal, you can also begin your appointment by clicking the reminder link sent to your email.
2
Click “Join TeleVisit” in your patient dashboard (or email reminder).
3
Fill out any patient questionnaire and provide the requested personal information.
4
Click “Proceed” to check your computer’s speed and ability to support a TeleHealth appointment. If you are using your computer, instead of a smart phone, your computer will need a webcam (most have one!).
5
Click “Start TeleVisit” to enter the virtual waiting room.
6
Your physician will begin the face-to-face TeleHealth visit and disconnect when the visit ends.
