Important Communication Update
Beginning July 14, 2026, Southcoast Health will introduce a new communication platform designed to make it easier to stay informed and connected to your care. This enhanced system will support secure two-way text messaging and improved phone communications between patients and Southcoast Health.
With this update, text messages from Southcoast Health will transition to our new text message short code 639104 and our new phone number 508-970-9470. We encourage patients to save this number to their contacts so they can easily recognize communications from Southcoast Health.
Thank you for trusting Southcoast Health providers with your healthcare needs.
Our physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants and staff look forward to assisting you.
Manage your care anytime, anywhere with MyChart. Sign up to view test results, schedule appointments, message your care team, and stay connected to your Southcoast Health providers.
Referrals to a Southcoast Physician
Your primary care physician is responsible for evaluating your condition or illness and determining the best course of treatment. Should you require a referral, Southcoast Care Connect can assist you in choosing the right specialist, getting an appointment and making sure your visit is authorized by your insurance.
Prior to your appointment, please be sure that any specialist you see participates in your insurance plan to avoid non-coverage of service.
