Virtual care options

Physical and mental health online care providers

Virtual care is a flexible way to reach providers at your convenience. You can connect promptly in urgent situations or schedule appointments for the future. It allows you to connect from anywhere and reach providers across different states. 

These providers offer virtual assistance for most* Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota and Blue Plus (Blue Cross) members. All you need is a phone, tablet or computer to connect with a qualified in-network provider. Some offer medical and mental health support for a variety of common conditions while others specialize.

These are virtual-first providers. Your usual in-person providers may offer virtual options as well.

*Medicare members may only use Doctor On Demand and potentially Homeward.
