Ford Employees Find Care

When you're feeling kind of crummy, or your child has a sick tummy, you need a trusted health care professional who knows you. There's a place for that.

Your primary care doctor is an excellent choice for treating minor to moderate illnesses, like colds, flu and respiratory infections.

Primary care doctors get to know your health history over time, including what medications seem to help. And if you need it, they can recommend follow-up care, too.

Because life doesn't always follow a schedule, many doctors are now available during early morning, late evening, and weekend office hours.

Don't have a primary care doctor yet? Go to bcbsm.com/findcare to locate one near you and see even more choices for care.

Late at night? Don't feel quite right? If you have questions about your symptoms, but your doctor's office is closed, there's a place for that.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan's 24-hour Nurse Line is staffed with registered nurses who are ready to help, right when you need it.

They're available around the clock if you have questions about minor symptoms like a stomachache, diarrhea or a cough.

They can point you in the right direction for care and recommend additional treatment, too. There's no cost, and you can use this service from anywhere in the U.S.

With the 24-hour Nurse Line, peace of mind is just a phone call away. To see even more choices for care, go to bcbsm.com/findcare.

Is your life keeping you busy? Do you need a convenient, trusted place to get professional care? With the BCBSM Online Visits app and website, you can get quality care, anywhere… Just use your smartphone, tablet or computer.

Each doctor is U.S. board-certified and specifically trained to provide virtual care. They can help with colds and flu, eye irritation, mild allergy symptoms, and more.

They can even send a visit summary to your primary care physician after you're seen.

Does your plan cover behavioral health? If your plan covers it, you can make an appointment with a therapist or psychiatrist online, too. They can help with anxiety, depression, grief or insomnia… all at a cost that's the same or less than a regular office visit.

Download the BCBSM Online Visits app from the App Store or Google Play, or visit bcbsmonlinevisits.com.

A scratchy throat... a runny nose… these aren't things you schedule into your week. But when they show up, you want quick, convenient treatment. Well, there's a place for that.

Retail health clinics are a convenient way to get care fast. They're usually located throughout your community, in locations that you already visit. They can treat common sore throats, coughs, sinus infections and more.

Once you're there, you'll get a quick, in-person evaluation… in a private exam room… by a physician assistant or nurse practitioner… who is overseen by a U.S. board-certified doctor.

And since most retail health clinics have pharmacies on-site, you can get your prescription filled right then and there.

Retail health clinics are a great choice for getting the treatment you need, so you can get back to feeling better, faster.

For severe or life-threatening emergencies, the ER is always the right choice. But for immediate care for minor symptoms, there's a place for that: your convenient retail health clinic.

To see if there's a retail health clinic near you – and to check out even more choices for care – go to bcbsm.com/findcare now.

When you get sick or have a minor accident, you just want to get treated and back to feeling good. But being sick or injured doesn't always happen during normal business hours.

So what do you do when you need care, but your doctor's office is closed? Don't worry: There's a place for that.

Local urgent care centers are staffed with U.S. board-certified doctors, nurses and nurse practitioners. They can usually see you after hours and on the weekends, too.

Plus, many centers include lab and X-ray services. That means you'll get thorough, personalized care all without needing an appointment.

If you have moderate—but not severe—symptoms, visiting an urgent care center could be better than a wait in the emergency room. And at a lower cost.
