The COVID-19 pandemic has underlined the importance of remote healthcare options. The fear of infection and the burden on healthcare facilities have made in-person visits more complex. Premium Care Medical Center recognized this need and responded with MD Connect. Whether you have concerns about COVID-19 or any other health issues, this telemedicine program allows you to connect with a physician consultant from the safety and comfort of your home. This not only minimizes the risk of exposure but also reduces the stress associated with hospital visits, such as long waiting hours and high co-pays.

This is far more than just an answering service telling you to call us in the morning or head to the nearest hospital. You can avoid the long waiting hours in the emergency room and higher co-pays associated with clinic or hospital visits by seeing a physician consultant online with MD Connect.

In your moment of need, use MD Connect and spare you or your child the hassle of going to the emergency room or scheduling a clinic appointment. A board-certified physician can be reached at the convenience of your own home after hours or even on vacation via online chat, Zoom, or phone to treat minor medical ailments.

MD Connect is available to anyone from Louisiana for a small fee. You do not have to be a clinic patient to receive this service. However, Direct Patient Care members can receive this service for a discounted rate after hours. Established patients seen via our telemedicine service will only be responsible for paying the allocated co-pay, co-insurance, deductible associated with their insurance, if applicable.
