Primary care providers (PCPs) have a broad range of expertise and play an important role in your everyday health care. Except for emergencies that require urgent medical attention, your PCP should be the first person you contact about a health concern. Your PCP can:
- Take care of routine medical problems such as aches, pains and colds
- Provide annual check-ups and other preventive care
- Diagnose and monitor chronic conditions
- Provide health education and prescriptions
- Refer you or your child to a specialist when needed
- Family medicine doctors provide general preventive and primary care services for people of all ages. They can provide care for you and your entire family.
- Pediatricians are specially-trained in infant, child and adolescent health care. They diagnose and treat a wide range of health conditions that affect kids – from everyday illnesses to serious chronic conditions.
- Internal medicine doctors (also called internists) provide advanced primary care services for adults. In addition to preventive and routine care, internists are specially trained to diagnose and manage chronic conditions of the internal organs.
- Internal medicine-pediatrics providers (also called med-peds) offer expert primary care services for people of all ages. With specialized training in both pediatric care and adult internal medicine, med-peds often serve patients who are born with chronic conditions, or develop them during childhood.
- Family nurse practitioners are registered nurses with specialized training to deliver care that is focused on the family. They diagnose illnesses, preform exams and prescribe medicine. They work in both primary and specialty care practices.

What is a telehealth visit?
A telehealth visit is like a regular health care appointment without having to travel to a doctor’s office. Instead of meeting in person, you’ll speak with a care team member using a phone or computer. You can use your computer, smartphone or tablet. Just like a regular health care appointment, you can use a telehealth visit to discuss medical concerns, symptoms, get a prescription, a diagnosis and more.
