Telehealth Makes the Holidays Brighter

Written by Child Care Aware® of Missouri | Dec 16, 2024 11:11:52 PM

There is never a good time to be sick, especially during the holidays. There is so much to be done, making a doctor’s appointment or taking the time to go to urgent care can be a challenge. In addition, the holidays are not jolly for everyone, and the stress of the holidays can bring on the blues.   Your Show Me Child Care Resources subscription provides telehealth benefits and 24/7 access to doctors by phone, video or mobile app to service your medical and mental health needs.  

Telemedicine provides access to doctors for non-emergency care for early educators and their families anywhere, anytime. The doctors are board-certified in your state, licensed to practice medicine, and able to write prescriptions. The program also includes a prescription discount card. The doctor can call in your prescriptions to your local pharmacy.  For $9.00 per month, this service provides unlimited use, with no per-call fees or co-pays. 

For $15.00 per month you can have telemedicine and the additional benefit of mental health services called teletherapy. This benefit provides 10 visits with therapists, counselors and behavioral health specialists to you and your family.  

This program can be a great way to offer employees medical benefits, which can improve employee recruitment and retention.
