What if there is a condition that might need me to be seen in person?
You may first run it by your Cirrus Medical Network physician, and if deemed necessary, you may be asked to go to the urgent care or ER for an expedited work-up. Your case and medical records can be faxed to the respective facility in no time so as to minimize medical mistakes.
Home monitoring tools such as a blood pressure cuff, pulse oximeter, and digital thermometers are widely available online and in pharmacies. With these tools your CirrusMED physician can obtain even more information virtually to make an informed decision and may eliminate the need to be seen in person.
