The message below was distributed by Eric J. Holcomb, Governor to all Hoosier.
The Indiana Department of Health works to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The best tool we have is vaccination.

Those over 50 years old and teachers are now eligible for the COVID vaccine. Please refer to https://www.coronavirus.in.gov/files/Eligibility%201.5.21.pdf for the full eligibility list.
The Indiana State Department of Health has issued an announcement that any Hoosier age 80 and older is now eligible to schedule a vaccination appointment, as are long-term care residents, first responders, and licensed/unlicensed healthcare workers (individuals must meet the ISDH requirements).
Here’s an excerpt from https://www.coronavirus.in.gov/vaccine/index.htm:
“COVID-19 vaccine has arrived in Indiana
The vaccination of Hoosiers against COVID-19 has begun. Any Hoosier age 80 and older is now eligible to schedule a vaccination appointment, as are long-term care residents, first responders (fire, law enforcement, emergency medical services, reservists and volunteers) who have in-person contact with the public and licensed and unlicensed healthcare workers who have in-person contact with patients or infectious material in any healthcare setting.
Hoosiers age 80 and older can schedule a vaccination at the link in the red bar above or by calling 2-1-1 if they do not have access to a computer or need assistance registering. Eligible professionals should receive an invitation and registration link from their employer, professional association, or the State of Indiana (Indiana Department of Health, Professional Licensing Agency, Family & Social Services Administration, Department of Homeland Security, or another state agency). If you are a licensed healthcare provider, make sure your email is updated with the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency and continue to check your email and SPAM. If you are eligible and haven’t received an invitation, please ask your employer.
Please be patient, as vaccine supply is limited. Additional groups will be eligible as soon as vaccine supplies permit.” – https://www.coronavirus.in.gov/vaccine/index.htm

Drs. Somes, McCollum, McKeever, and Schulte are now offering telemedicine visits for our patients. Our physicians are providing these visits using video conferencing to connect virtually with the patient and caregiver. Telemedicine is new to our office and many of our families. We will work with each family individually to provide the most appropriate care for each situation as it arises.
Telemedicine allows our physicians to care for each patient remotely using audio-visual communications. This service is offered through the use of a smart-phone text message, providing a link to a virtual waiting room and then creating a real-time connection between physician and patient. If the patient/caregiver does not have access to a smart-phone the physician will provide their services using audio communication only.
This service is available to all established patients with Guardian Pediatrics. The caregiver and patient must be present to initiate all telemedicine visits provided to children under the age of 18 years.
Telemedicine is offered, but not limited to, the following visits:
Telemedicine is not appropriate for all conditions or patient concerns. A physician will review all triage calls and determine which type of visit will be best suited for every appointment.
Telemedicine appointments will be billed through your insurance company. All copays will apply as if the visit was in office. Any remaining fees will be billed to the patient after the insurance company has reviewed each claim.
