Does National Telemedicine Center help save company money?
Definitely. National Telemedicine Center can help self-insured businesses save as much as $200 per employee every year. With National Telemedicine Center, costly, tiring, and unnecessary trips to a PCP office or emergency medical facility are drastically reduced if not totally replaced by a more budget-friendly telephone medical consultation. Every time an employee or their covered dependents visit the doctor’s office, it costs a self-insured company an average of $80 for each person. It also helps cover for the unavailability of regular doctors in the middle of the night which leaves patients with no choice other than to rush to emergency care facilities that cost significantly higher. National Telemedicine Center is open and available to its members 12 hours a day, Monday to Friday, from 9 am – 9 pm EST as a more convenient alternative.
