Patients must FIRST be invited to join their healthcare provider's virtual clinic as a virtual patient. They should receive an 'invitation email' or 'invite code' from the clinic.
See article - 'Join Your Healthcare Provider's Virtual Clinic When Invited'
The following users must set up a SK Virtual Visit account:
- Patients who are being seen virtually by their healthcare provider with a 'patient consultation'.
- Guests (family members, caregivers, other healthcare providers), who are invited by a patient to join their 'patient consultation'.
Patients/participants who are invited to a 'video meeting' do not require a SK Virtual Visit account, as they simply join using a meeting link, ID and Passcode.
