What’s the difference between Virtual ReadyMED and traditional ReadyMED?
There are a few differences:
- Virtual ReadyMED provides online care only and is available for Reliant Medical Group primary care patients age 4+.
Our traditional ReadyMED service has offices in Auburn, Hudson, Leominster and Worcester that are open to everyone, including non-Reliant patients. - Virtual ReadyMED is by appointment only (appointments are made via MyChart and available from 7am-11pm).
ReadyMED is walk-in only (no appointments). - The services offered vary. For example, the Virtual ReadyMED team is an extension of Reliant’s primary care team and may help patients with medication adjustments and chronic illness consultation at times when a patient’s PCP is unavailable.
Traditional ReadyMED is for same-day convenient care and has x-ray and lab services available.
