Teladoc Health

Teladoc Health Available for you NOW

Teladoc Health online services are available to you now, initially free of charge until June 29, 2020.

The online care services that Teladoc Health offers includes 24/7 access to some of the best doctors and clinicians in the world, anytime.

Teladoc Health provides convenient, high-quality care in the U.S. through a network of 3,100 board-certified physicians with 20 years of experience on average. They resolve 92 percent of members’ health issues on a client’s first visit. Teladoc reports that more than 90 percent of its members are satisfied with their online experience and would use the service again.

Teladoc can help resolve a wide variety of non-emergency conditions through its services:

• Flu
• Cough
• Sinus problems
• Upper respiratory infection
• Pink eye
• Bronchitis
• Nasal congestion
• Sore throat
• Sinusitis
• Seasonal allergies
• Cold
• Arthritis
• Backache
• Rash/poison ivy
• Bug bites
• Food poisoning
• Sunburn
• Rash

These online health services are being made available to you in addition to the telehealth benefits you already have to call and receive medical consultations via telephone with your doctors, clinics and other health care providers, the same as if you made a visit to a doctor’s office in person.

Teladoc Health may be especially useful during the COVID-19 outbreak. You will be able to avoid exposure to germs and access the healthcare you need, at your fingertips and from the convenience of your own home.

Initially, there will be no cost to you as a USHL member. After June 29, 2020, regular copays and coinsurance will apply, just as if you were to visit a physician’s office or make a visit to a primary care provider. Depending on future government guidance during the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak, the period in which Teladoc is free to you is subject to change.
