Premise Health is the organization that operates and staffs your wellness center. We are the nation’s leading provider of direct healthcare, which means we partner with companies to offer their employees high-quality in-person and virtual health services. We are here as your health ally to help you get, stay and be well. We do this with experience, and by shifting the focus from treatment to prevention, empowering you to make health and wellness a priority.
Members are what we call our patients. If your employer has partnered with Premise Health to provide access to our wellness centers and services, you’re automatically considered an eligible member. There is no membership fee to get started. It also reflects how much we value our care relationship with you, because to us, you’re more than just a patient – you’re a member.
The EIT Health & Wellness Center is staffed, managed and operated by Premise Health. The medical staff includes a combination of physicians, nurse practitioners and physical therapists. Each staff member has been carefully screened and is qualified to deliver exceptional care. Your wellness center is not staffed or managed by EIT Benefit Funds or their employees in any way.
My Premise Health is your member portal. It is a secure online and mobile tool that you can use to manage your health information. My Premise Health connects you to your healthcare experience by providing convenient access to schedule and manage appointments, message your providers, conduct virtual visits, view your lab results, request medication refills and more.

Virtual visits
Placeholder
To meet virtually with one of the providers at your wellness center, you must first create an account on the My Premise Health app or online at mypremisehealth.com. Log in and select “Schedule an appointment,” choose your appointment type and if prompted, select whether you’d like to be seen by phone or video. You can then follow the remaining prompts to complete your scheduling.
A virtual visit is just like an in-person appointment. You can discuss your medical needs with your provider, and they will diagnose and prescribe medications as needed.
Virtual visits are designed to treat your short-term needs and provide long-term preventive care with convenience and flexibility. If you’re experiencing a medical emergency, please dial 911 as soon as possible to get the medical attention you need.
