News From Minnesota Outreach

COVID-19 Telehealth Treatment Program

The State of Minnesota's telehealth test-to-treat program helps to ensure Minnesotans who have tested positive for COVID-19 have easy access to clinician care and therapeutic treatments that reduce their risk of serious illness or hospitalization.

Minnesotans with a positive COVID-19 test can use a website, mobile app, or phone call to sign up for a virtual consult with a licensed clinician.

• If you are a good candidate for therapeutics, the clinician can provide a prescription virtually to a local pharmacy.
• In some geographic areas, prescription medications can also be delivered to a home address.
• The consult, medication, and delivery will come at no cost.

For more information on how to access this program and for instructions on downloading and getting started with the Cue Health App:
