Virtual Plus offers affordable, convenient care options

Our Virtual Plus plan is a great option for getting low-cost, high-quality care virtually, with in-person care when you need it. With Kaiser Permanente virtual care, you’ll be cared for by our doctors and other clinicians—the same ones who care for you in person at our medical facilities. On this plan, you’ll start most of your care with a virtual care visit at no charge¹.

	On-demand virtual care1,2 Connect anytime for on-demand video and phone visits with Kaiser Permanente clinicians who have access to your medical record and health history.
	24/7 phone advice Talk with a licensed care clinician day or night for advice.

	Care Chat1,2 Get real-time medical care online 24/7 from a clinician at no additional charge on most plans.
	Video visit1,2 Meet face-to-face with a Kaiser Permanente clinician by video.
	Phone appointment1 Make a phone appointment to talk with your doctor over the phone.
	E-visit1,2 Get an online diagnosis for common medical issues that don't need a physical exam.
	Email2 Message your Kaiser Permanente care team with nonurgent questions and get a reply, usually within 2 business days.

Starting your care with a virtual option gives you the lowest costs and greatest convenience. At your virtual visit, your Kaiser Permanente doctor or clinician will provide you with the care and prescriptions you need or will refer you to in-person care. When you need in-person care and are referred by a clinician, your costs will be lower. Some in-person care doesn’t need a referral for the lower cost, including your first visit with an in-network doctor and preventive care. Care received outside of the network is generally not covered except for urgent and emergency care.
