Your Health is in Your Hands

Introducing Middlesex County’s Telehealth Program, a new, community-based program focused on education and increasing access to bilingual telemedicine choices. Partnerships with local organizations and healthcare providers in Perth Amboy, Carteret, and New Brunswick will ensure telehealth healthcare options are safe, confidential, and discrete, helping those in need, specifically those with limited insurance options. 

Use the devices available at the Telehealth Hubs to connect with healthcare providers to help determine the first steps of your care. Telehealth offers all the benefits of a doctor’s visit with ease and efficiency, convenience and discretion, and HIPAA compliancy. With your health in your own hands, receive the best care from anywhere!
