Today, we are excited to announce a new program that will reduce unnecessary and costly emergency room visits and improve access to care for those without health insurance. Healthlink JAX is a new, free service, available 24/7, that provides on-demand visits with board-certified doctors through a video call, and then connects patients with free local clinics and other existing community resources. "Avoidable ER visits are a significant financial expense to patients, health systems, and taxpayers," said Mayor Donna Deegan during the announcement Monday morning. "However, with Healthlink JAX, we are curbing these costs by providing immediate virtual care, as well as directing patients to existing safety net solutions." Healthlink Jax is free and available to all Duval County residents who do not have health insurance by simply calling 904-925-CARE (2273).
