Spartanburg Regional’s Virtual Care Clinic is an excellent way to enhance health care to employees.
It is a quick, convenient, and cost-effective way to receive quality care without the need to miss work or travel to see a doctor. Patients can communicate with a medical professional from their mobile device or computer from work, home, or car.
Offering this service to employees can be as simple as posting information on a bulletin board or in a breakroom without a formal partnership or contract.
Business leaders are invited to join us during their lunch hour to learn more about the benefits of virtual care, the types of appointments available and the various telehealth services offered. Experience an appointment demonstration and take the opportunity to ask the team questions.
