It’s a faster—and safer—way to:

  • Get answers to your COVID-19 questions and concerns, and get the right care quickly
  • Book appointments, get test results, and get answers for non-urgent health concerns
  • Continue your regular care with your primary care and specialty doctors through video visits

Here's how to get started:

  1. Text 474-624 (4-SINAI).
  2. Tap the link you will receive immediately to enter a secure chat.
  3. Choose what you would like help with. For example, you would select “Flu Help” if you have flu-like symptoms, or “COVID-19 Help” if you think you may have the coronavirus.
