Telehealth is a healthcare benefit that employers can offer to employees independent of other healthcare benefits or insurance. It’s a 24/7/365 phone or video consultation service with licensed physicians who can consult, diagnose, and if needed, prescribe medication for common and acute illnesses. Consultations are done on your mobile device, tablet, home phone, or computer.
Employees don’t miss work wasting time at the doctor’s office and their entire family is covered! So you provide peace of mind and a nice benefit, too.
