Whether attending school or working outside of UPMC Health Plan’s primary service area, eligible dependent children (up to age 26) are covered through the UPMC Health Plan national extended network. Your child age 18 or over also can use UPMC AnywhereCare to have a virtual urgent care visit with a health care provider. This service is best for nonemergency conditions, such as cold symptoms, allergies, or pink eye. The provider can even send a prescription to a nearby pharmacy, if necessary.
