Members can now self-schedule video appointments online at kp.org and communicate face-to-face with physicians on a mobile phone, computer or tablet. Kaiser Permanente Northern California began offering video visits across the region in 2011, and they became widely available in mid-2014. “One of the strengths of this option is that you can maintain a stronger relationship with your own doctor through video.” “Many patients reported that the video visit actually improved the relationship with their clinician,” said lead author Mary Reed, DrPH, research scientist at the Kaiser Permanente Northern California Division of Research. Kaiser Permanente members who chose video visits were overwhelmingly satisfied with this new way to “see” their doctor, according to research correspondence published today in the New England Journal of Medicine. THIS IS AWFUL MEDICAL PRACTICE! Thank god it was a rash and not cancer!!! I healed the rash with Allegra and vaseline.Kaiser Permanente research finds that members appreciate being able to connect with their doctors online Mary Reed’s research is showing that Kaiser Permanente members feel video visits strengthen the doctor-patient relationship. And I don’t send them photographs of what the problem is. First off, if my car breaks down, I do not call a refrigerator repair person. When I requested AGAIN to see a dermatologist because IT IS NOT ROSACEA, she referred me to an online derm appt. When I requested to see a dermatologist she prescribed a an oral medication and told me if it wasn’t gone in 10-14 more days call back. I’ve been to a dermatologist enough to know they remove any makeup over the area, use a very bright light and a magnifying lens to check the rash out before they prescribe some medication that can have side effects. This dr stood 5 feet away from me and leaned a bit toward me and diagnosed rosacea (?). I went directly from work so I had on full face makeup to cover the rash. After trying a few days to deal with it myself (and it spreading and causing my under eye to swell) I made an appt-for 3 days later-earliest I could get in) with a primary care dr-NOT my dr just a random dr who had an available time. I had a rash break out on my face 2weeks ago. So maybe I can get her appointment reminders and prescription refills instead of the “dad” who doesn’t “do” anything except pay for the insurance!!! Ty. Please fix this and allow the custodial parent to add her kids to the app. This is very frustrating as a mother who has 100% physical custody and care of her kids and still can’t possibly get allowed ACCESS to her child's medical information and can’t utilize the “app” for BOTH CHILDREN! I have 50/50 legal custody of my children but I don’t have the ability to add my child to the app because I’m not the one who pays for the membership?!!!!!!! So the problem I have is, that Kaiser does not allow the custodial parent to add her children in the MyDr app because I’m not the account owner. He however, is not a Kaiser member and uses his free VA benefits instead. One of my kids gets Medi-Cal and the other has Kaiser paid directly by her dad. I would just like to say that Kaiser and the world need to “get with it”!! Ideally, I would have loved to be married with two kids just like the whole world is right? WRONG!! I myself have two beautiful children with two separate and different fathers, who have both been ordered to provide health coverage for their children via the department of child support.
