Ohio health system launches urgent care telehealth app

Memorial Health System in Marietta, Ohio, unveiled its new mobile application that allows patients to participate in virtual visits with their provider, NBC affiliate WTAP reports.

The new service, called Memorial Care Now, is available on both Apple and Android devices. Patients who use the telehealth app can schedule a video chat appointment with an emergency department or urgent care physician.

Virtual appointments completed through the service cost $50, with or without health insurance.

Last month, Memorial Health System received an almost $500,000 federal grant to develop a telehealth program geared toward treating opioid addiction, according to the report.
