Health care is in need of a solution. Teladoc answers the call.
Teladoc has the largest physician network in telehealth today and offers faster access to care with an average physician response rate of only 22 minutes. And, at $38/consult Teladoc lowers costs by avoiding unnecessary urgent care visits or ER visits. Finally, patients enjoy quality care from board-certified physicians with no time limit on their consult.
33% of Americans can’t get timely appointments due to a national shortage of PCPs that is only expected to get worse. Many are waiting weeks just to see a doctor for a consult that lasts, on average, four minutes. Of the total annual visits for acute care, only 42% are made to patients’ personal physicians. The rest are made to more costly ER, specialists and outpatient visits.

Cost
Health care expenses, premiums and out-of-pocket costs are increasing at twice the rate of inflation, putting the crunch on health plans, employers and patients alike.
Access
Americans can’t get timely doctor appointments. The result? They go to costly ER and urgent care clinics or they wait. Then spend half a day away from work for a 4-minute visit.
Quality
Retail and urgent care centers often use physician assistants and nurse practitioners. The average physician consultation lasts only 3-5 minutes.
