about our Safety Measures
CHI’s health centers remain open during this time as patients are being screened at the entrance for COVID-19 as a precaution for safeguarding the general patient population. Those with symptoms are not allowed inside so that primary care, behavioral health, dental, OB/GYN, pharmacy, vision, radiology, (limited dental services) and urgent care visits can continue.
In addition, you can now see your doctor while in the comfort of your own home! CHI is now offering TELEHEALTH and telephonic visits for:
- Urgent Care
- Primary Care
- Pediatrics
- Behavioral health for adults and children
- OB/GYN

Most insurances cover telehealth and CHI offers a sliding fee scale based on income for the uninsured.
