What is Telemedicine?
Telemedicine allows doctors to diagnose and treat patients from a distance through telecommunications technology.
UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh is leading the way in using telemedicine services to:
- Provide you with expert pediatric care virtually from UPMC providers from the comfort of home.
- Connect you to digital health tools such as MyCHP, UPMC Children’s Express Care, and UPMC Children’s AnywhereCare to provide your child with care when they need it.
- Save you time and gas spent traveling to appointments.
