In fact, Children’s Mercy has been repeatedly recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of “America’s Best Children’s Hospitals.”

• Available 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., 7 days a week

• Available via smartphone, tablet or computer for video appointments

When to use KidCare Anywhere:
We can provide guidance and treatment for common conditions, such as fever, cough, congestion, runny nose, allergies, pink eye, sore throat, minor rash, minor strains, upset stomach or other minor symptoms. Children with serious or life-threatening injuries or illnesses should go directly to the emergency room. Following the appointment, your provider may order a prescription when appropriate, sent to your preferred pharmacy.
