Sana Members Can Access UrgentCare2go Mobile Medical Visits

Understanding Coverage Before Scheduling Care at Your Door

What Is a Mobile Medical Visit?

A mobile medical visit brings a healthcare professional to your home, workplace, hotel, or another approved location. Instead of traveling to a traditional clinic and waiting to be seen, the patient can receive an in-person evaluation where they are located.

Depending on the reason for the appointment, the visit may include:

Review of symptoms and medical history
Medication and allergy review
Vital-sign assessment
An in-person examination
Point-of-care testing when medically appropriate
Treatment recommendations
A prescription when clinically appropriate
Follow-up instructions
Referral for laboratory testing, imaging, or specialty care
Direction to a higher level of care when necessary

The medical professional will determine what can safely be evaluated or treated during the mobile visit. Some symptoms require services or equipment that are only available at a clinic, imaging center, hospital, or emergency department.

Does Sana Benefits Cover UrgentCare2go?

UrgentCare2go has a dedicated insurance page for Sana Benefits members and identifies Sana Benefits as an accepted insurance plan. However, accepting an insurance plan does not mean every visit, provider, test, medication, or procedure will be paid in full.

Your coverage may depend on:

Active eligibility on the appointment date
Your employer’s specific Sana Benefits plan
Provider and service-area participation
The type of appointment scheduled
Whether the visit is classified as urgent or primary care
Your copay, deductible, or coinsurance
Medical-necessity requirements
Prior-authorization or referral rules
Services performed during the visit
How the final claim is processed

Insurance verification provides information available before the appointment, but it is not a guarantee of payment. Sana Benefits makes the final coverage determination after reviewing the submitted claim.

Questions to Ask Sana Benefits

Before scheduling, contact Sana Benefits using the member-services information on your insurance card or member portal.

Ask:

Is UrgentCare2go in network for my specific plan?
Is the treating medical professional in network?
Are mobile or home-based medical visits covered?
Is the appointment processed as urgent care, primary care, or another service?
What copay may apply?
Does the visit apply to my deductible?
Will coinsurance be required?
Is prior authorization needed?
Do I need a referral or designated primary care provider?
Are laboratory tests billed separately?
Is point-of-care testing covered?
Are injections or administered medications covered separately?
Is imaging performed by another facility covered?
Are prescriptions subject to a separate pharmacy benefit?

Write down the representative’s name, the date of the conversation, and any confirmation or reference number provided.

What Can UrgentCare2go Evaluate?

Cold symptoms
Cough and congestion
Flu-like symptoms
Fever
Sore throat
Sinus symptoms
Ear pain
Allergies
Mild asthma symptoms
Headaches
Nausea or vomiting

UrgentCare2go also provides mobile primary care and selected laboratory services. Availability depends on the patient’s symptoms, medical needs, location, staffing, and the requested service.

Explain the reason for your appointment when scheduling so the team can determine whether a mobile visit is appropriate.

Mobile Urgent Care or Primary Care?

Urgent and primary care may both be available through UrgentCare2go, but they serve different purposes.

Mobile urgent care

Urgent care is intended for an illness or minor injury that needs timely attention but is not life-threatening. Examples may include a sore throat, fever, urinary symptoms, minor infection, rash, or mild injury.

Mobile primary care

Primary care focuses on routine and ongoing health needs. A primary care visit may include medication management, follow-up care, chronic-condition monitoring, preventive discussions, or evaluation of a concern that benefits from continued medical oversight.

The appointment category may affect how Sana Benefits processes the claim. When confirming coverage, describe the actual reason for your visit rather than asking only whether house calls are covered.

How Does UrgentCare2go Work?

The mobile-care process generally begins online:

Request an appointment. Enter your ZIP code and select an available service or appointment time.
Provide patient information. Submit accurate contact information, symptoms, medical history, medications, allergies, and Sana Benefits details.
Upload insurance information. Provide clear images of the front and back of your current insurance card when requested.
Complete required forms. Review and complete consent, medical-history, and payment information before the appointment.
Receive confirmation. A team member may contact you to verify the appointment address, telephone number, symptoms, and service details.
Prepare for arrival. UrgentCare2go uses a three-hour arrival window. Keep your phone nearby because the medical assistant may text or call when traveling to your location.
Receive your examination. The medical professional will review your history, check vital signs, complete an appropriate examination, and discuss the recommended care plan.
Follow the care instructions. Your plan may include medication, testing, home-care guidance, follow-up, referral, or instructions to seek a higher level of care.

The exact visit process can vary based on the service requested and the patient’s medical needs. Review the UrgentCare2go How It Works page for additional scheduling information.

What Should You Prepare Before the Visit?

Having your information ready can help the medical professional understand your needs and reduce delays.

Prepare:

Your current Sana Benefits insurance card
A government-issued photo ID
A list of prescription medications
Vitamins and dietary supplements
Medication and food allergies
A summary of your symptoms
The date your symptoms began
Recent temperature, blood-pressure, or blood-sugar readings
Relevant medical records
Recent laboratory or imaging results
Your preferred pharmacy information
Referral or authorization documents
Your benefit-verification reference number

If another person is scheduling for the patient, make sure the patient’s correct name, date of birth, telephone number, insurance information, and service address are entered.

Preparing Your Home for the Medical Team

Before the medical assistant arrives:

Keep your phone nearby for arrival updates.
Make sure the address and entry instructions are accurate.
Secure dogs, cats, and other pets in a separate room.
Prepare a clean and well-lit area for the examination.
Provide a stable chair and nearby surface when possible.
Wear clothing that allows the medical professional to examine the affected area.
Ask household members to provide privacy during the visit.
Have a responsible adult present when required.
Inform the team if your symptoms change before arrival.

Mobile appointments use an arrival window because travel time, traffic, distance, and the needs of earlier patients can affect the exact arrival time.

Are Tests Included in the Visit?

Some concerns may require testing before the medical professional can make a treatment recommendation. Available point-of-care testing may depend on the patient’s symptoms, location, staffing, and supplies.

Testing may include separate charges or insurance benefits. Before agreeing to testing, ask:

What test is being recommended?
Why is the test medically appropriate?
Is it included in the appointment charge?
Will it be submitted separately to Sana Benefits?
Is the laboratory or testing provider in network?
Is prior authorization required?
What amount may be my responsibility?

Testing performed during a visit and laboratory specimens sent to an outside laboratory may be processed differently by the health plan.

Are Prescriptions Covered?

A healthcare professional may prescribe medication when it is medically appropriate. A prescription is not guaranteed and depends on the examination, diagnosis, allergies, medical history, and professional judgment.

The cost of medication is separate from the mobile visit. Sana Benefits pharmacy coverage may depend on:

Whether the medication is on the plan’s formulary
The pharmacy selected
Generic or brand-name status
Prior-authorization requirements
Quantity limitations
Your pharmacy deductible or copay

Confirm medication coverage with Sana Benefits or the pharmacy before filling the prescription if cost is a concern.

UrgentCare2go does not guarantee narcotic or controlled-substance prescriptions.

What If You Need Imaging or Specialty Care?

Some symptoms require an X-ray, ultrasound, CT scan, MRI, or specialist evaluation. The mobile medical professional may provide an order or referral when medically appropriate.

Before scheduling an outside service, confirm:

The imaging center or specialist is in network.
The service is covered by your Sana Benefits plan.
Prior authorization is complete.
A referral is required.
Your deductible or coinsurance applies.
The outside facility has received the necessary order.

Coverage for the mobile visit does not automatically guarantee coverage for outside testing or specialty services.
