Pediatric Health Care At Home
Telehealth services allow you to connect with your child’s provider from the comfort and safety of home. Kids First Health Care offers telehealth services for most visit types, including sick care, chronic disease management, reproductive health care, physicals and behavioral health care. Kids First providers offer virtual behavioral heath services, and Kid First has also partnered with Colorado Access to provide behavioral health services through Virtual Care Collaboration and Integration (VCCI).
Telehealth visits have a number of benefits for patients, including:
- Reduced risk of getting sick from leaving your home.
- Less wait time for care.
- Lower cost of care, especially if you do not have insurance.
- Greater access to your provider and quicker response.
