What is Telemedicine/Teletherapy?

Do you need to have health insurance to participate in the Telehealth Services Benefits Program?
No. You are not required to have major medical insurance to participate. However, telemedicine and teletherapy are not major medical insurance, they are more like a supplement – access to non-emergency health care at times convenient for you. Telemedicine visits are unlimited and teletherapy is limited to a total of 10 visits per year for anyone in your family.
Can Telehealth or Teletherapy services be used if there are other insurance options?
Yes. Because this is not an insurance plan, participating subscribers use this as a stand-alone service solely for non-emergency medical care. This service may be used in place of the services which may be offered through major medical insurance. There are no co-pays involved with this program. The only exception is that teletherapy is limited to a total of 10 visits after which you can decide whether you’d like to private pay for additional services or take advantage of mental health services with co-pays and pricing as provided under your major medical insurance if available.
Is there any prescription coverage?
Once you are registered for the telehealth program, you will receive access to prescription discounts through a Prescription Discount Card. A participating subscriber can look up their prescription drug and find the lowest price at over 66,000 pharmacies ensuring that they pay the lowest available price.
Who is covered under the Telehealth Services Benefit Program?
Yourself, spouse and children under age 26 (if applicable).
