EIT Health & Wellness Center
Frequently asked questions
General
Premise Health is a provider of in-person and virtual health for the world’s leading organizations. In other words, we partner with companies to bring their employees healthcare services and operate their wellness centers.
A wellness center is where you receive care as a member. We use this term versus the typical “doctor’s office” because we offer so much more than the usual office environment. Our centers not only typically offer more services than the average doctor’s office, but are also designed with you in mind, so you feel comfortable, calm and welcomed.
EIT Health & Wellness Center is staffed, managed and operated by Premise Health. Each staff member has been carefully screened and is qualified to deliver exceptional care. EIT Health & Wellness Center is not staffed or managed by EIT Benefit Funds or their Employees in any way.
While where you receive care is a personal choice, we hope you’ll consider trusting us with your overall wellbeing, much like EIT Benefit Funds has trusted us as a partner in health. We’d love to see you soon!

To meet virtually with one of the providers at your wellness center, you must first set up an account on the My Premise Health app or online at mypremisehealth.com if you haven’t already. Then, log in and select “Schedule an appointment.” Choose your appointment type that says “Video” or “Phone” next to it. You will then follow the prompts to complete scheduling.
Virtual primary care visits are just like in-office visits. You will discuss your medical needs with your provider, and they will diagnose and prescribe medications when medically appropriate. Virtual primary care providers do not prescribe controlled substances, non-theraeutic drugs or other drugs that can be harmful due to their potential for abuse.
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.
Services
Preventive care includes routine checkups and screenings that help you stay healthy in the long-term. These are visits you make when you’re feeling well to catch any health issues early or improve your wellbeing. This includes annual physicals, cancer screenings, vaccinations and more.
Non-preventive care on the other hand, includes visits you schedule when you’re not feeling well. These are meant to address your symptoms to find out what’s wrong and get you back to feeling your best. Some examples include sick visits and treatment for issues like cold and flu, allergies, injuries and more.
Yes, your EIT Health & Wellness Center can perform blood draws and other lab tests ordered by an outside provider. All lab orders must be faxed or dropped off at the center to ensure we have the proper supplies for the required testing.
