COVID-19 Vaccine Update

As you may have heard, the new vaccine to prevent COVID-19 is now arriving in Maryland. The first doses will be given to hospital workers who are in contact with COVID-19 patients, so the vaccine is currently not available to the general public. See this article in the Baltimore Sun for more details. MPCP will post more information on the vaccine as we receive it. In the meantime, we urge you to continue taking steps to prevent the spread of the virus, including wearing masks, social distancing and washing your hands.

After-Hours Telemedicine Visits Now Available (Acute Care Only)

MPCP is now offering after-hours acute telemedicine video appointments to better fit your schedule. Secure and protected telemedicine visits with MPCP providers can be scheduled Monday through Friday 3PM to 9PM and Saturday and Sunday 10 AM – 4 PM. Call 410-729-3368 or schedule your after-hours telemedicine visit online through MyChart: https://mychart.umms.org/Mpcp/Scheduling.

MPCP is committed to providing care to our patients. We have expanded our acute telemedicine visit scheduling to be available when you need us and better meet the medical needs of our community.

Prior to your telemedicine video visit, the MPCP staff will provide you with detailed instructions that will ensure your telemedicine visit is private and protected.
