  • With UPMC AnywhereCare*, members can have a video visit with a UPMC provider from a computer, tablet, or smartphone—day or night. This convenient, time-saving service works well for colds, the flu, sore throats, rashes, and other nonemergency conditions. The UPMC AnywhereCare telemedicine platform also offers care specifically for children through UPMC Children’s AnywhereCare**. This service allows newborns to 17-year-olds to have virtual visits 24/7 with UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh providers over live video. Pediatric care specialists can diagnose, provide treatment options, and prescribe medication for many nonemergency illnesses.
    • *UPMC for You members located in Pennsylvania at the time of the virtual visit may select a UPMC-employed provider or a provider from Online Care Network II, P.C. (OCN), subject to availability and discretion of the provider. During the COVID-19 emergency declaration, members located outside of Pennsylvania will receive service from OCN. OCN is not an affiliate of UPMC. After the COVID-19 emergency declaration, UPMC AnywhereCare virtual visits will not be covered services when UPMC for You members are traveling outside of Pennsylvania.
    • **UPMC Children’s AnywhereCare is available only to patients who are in Pennsylvania. In order for a child to have a UPMC Children’s AnywhereCare visit, the child’s parent or legal guardian must be with the child during the video portion of the visit, and the child and parent or legal guardian must be in Pennsylvania during the visit. If you are located outside of Pennsylvania at the time of service, you may select the standard UPMC AnywhereCare module and you will receive care from a provider employed or contracted by Online Care Network II P.C. (OCN) at the discretion of the provider. OCN is not an affiliate of UPMC. During the COVID-19 emergency declaration, UPMC for You members located outside of Pennsylvania will receive service from OCN.
