"Teladoc was indeed easy and very helpful. How easy is it? I started by taking about 5 minutes to enroll. Then I completed my medical history, which took about 10 minutes. Then I entered in my HSA debit card information to request the consultation and received a phone call from the doctor within 10 minutes. Once the consultation started she really listened, took action, told me what to do next. It was about seven minutes total. It took a little longer for the prescription to get to my pharmacy, about 65 minutes. I love the Teladoc medical history section for two reasons: A) It’s saved, and I don’t have to re-create it; B) I have a bunch of allergies; often I forget some when I’m rushing at the doctor’s office. The history form had easy add buttons to help me cover every one of my allergies. The list of prescriptions used is very similar as well. Another helpful feature on the Guidestone page is a message center where the doctor summarizes the consultation. You can ask any outstanding questions and get help there. I’m very glad I used the service. The best part is that I was on the mend within a half-day and I didn’t miss more work. You can't beat the price! Only $40 for a doctor's consultation versus paying $120 - $150 just for an office visit." |
