Can I see an Optum doctor virtually through a video visit?

Yes, some providers are available for virtual visits. With the exception of Urgent Care, all departments and specialties offer Virtual Care visits.

How should I prepare for my virtual care visit?

Get ready for your video visit by logging in to MyChart early, before your appointment, with your computer or phone. Next, complete eCheckin.

You can also easily test your camera and audio before your visit on MyChart. Then, once it’s time for you visit, just log in to MyChart, and click the Begin Visit button.

Once your doctor joins the video call, your visit will begin. After the visit, you’ll get your After Visit Summary, which will outline the visit and contain any patient information and/or educational materials your doctor adds.
