Express Care Virtual Have a live secure video visit with a provider from your tablet, smartphone or computer. Providence Express Care Virtual is great for things that need treatment, including a prescription, but don’t require hands-on care. For example, maybe you have a sinus, ear or eye infection - or a cough or rash that won’t go away. It’s like having Facetime with a provider.
