LiveHealth Online Psychiatry

What you need to know about video visits with a psychiatrist

Now you can see a board-certified psychiatrist to help you manage medications.1 Whether you're at home, at work, or on the go. Just download the free LiveHealth Online app to your mobile device or visit livehealthonline.com on a computer with a webcam.

You can have a video visit with a psychiatrist usually in two weeks.2 Appointments, which are also available on evenings and weekends, can be scheduled online or over the phone at 1-888-548-3432 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week.

Psychiatrists on LiveHealth Online can help you manage some of your medications. Keep in mind, though, they can't prescribe medications that are controlled substances. For counseling sessions, contact a psychologist or therapist on LiveHealth Online Psychology. Remember, if you're in crisis or having suicidal thoughts, get help right away or call 911.

You'll see your cost before the visit starts. Your Anthem plan includes benefits for video visits using LiveHealth Online, so you'll just pay your share of the costs.

No, the cost is the same.

You can use PayPal, American Express, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover cards to pay for an online visit.

You'll need high-speed Internet access, a webcam or a built-in camera with audio. To learn what computer hardware and software you need, go to livehealthonline.com and select Frequently asked questions under the How it works tab.

When you log into livehealthonline.com, the psychiatrists you see on the website are part of your plan. Make sure you select the state where you are to see the most current list of psychiatrists.

You must be 18 years old or older to schedule a visit.
