Virtual care options during the COVID-19 surge in Arizona

Arizona continues to see a rise in COVID-19 cases across the state. To help ensure your safety, we encourage you to use the latest technologies to virtually connect with your health care team and also to order and refill prescriptions.

  • Telephone or Video Appointments – Veterans may receive care at home, either over the phone or via video using VA Video Connect on their computers, smartphones, or tablets. To set up telephone or video appointments, Veterans can send their provider a secure message on My HealtheVet by visiting va.gov. To learn more about VA Video Connect, visit mobile.va.gov/app/va-video-connect.
  • Prescription Refills – Veterans may request prescription refills, order, and have medications mailed to their homes using My HealtheVet or the Rx Refill mobile app. Download the app at va.gov/app/rx-refill or call 1-800-470-8262 and press 1.
  • Secure Messaging – With My HealtheVet, VA’s online patient portal, Veterans may send online secure messages to their VA health care team to ask non-urgent health questions. Register at myhealth.va.gov
