Patients and doctors can easily tap into the AR ConnectNow Virtual Clinic, a UAMS Health service offering comprehensive behavioral health support for conditions like anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia, accessible to all Arkansans regardless of insurance status.
Patients can initiate care by calling the 24/7 call center at 501-526-3563 or 800-482-9921, where specially trained nurses screen calls and arrange a phone intake within 24 business hours, followed by up to six video therapy sessions Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with no referral needed—just a device with video capabilities and a private, quiet space.
Doctors can refer patients or collaborate with AR ConnectNow by contacting the same call center to discuss urgent, non-emergency mental health needs, leveraging the clinic’s team of mental health professionals who conduct needs assessments and provide short-term care, transitioning patients to local resources for ongoing support if required.
