Telehealth 24x7 Doctor On Call

ICM’s Telehealth 24 x 7 Doctor Line provides clients real-time access to US-based and licensed physicians in all 50 states. Telehealth services are the fastest growing health service in the country, providing patients with access to care on an immediate basis.

Why Telehealth?

According to the Wellness Council of America, 70% of all physician visits can be handled over the phone and 40% of urgent care visits can be managed using telehealth. Additionally, when deemed medically necessary, our physicians can prescribe approved medications to your local pharmacy. (State/federal guidelines apply and only medications approved by the company are allowed).

Through this service, patients can potentially avoid high cost visits to emergency rooms and clinics while receiving care from qualified physicians and specialists.

Cost savings

Today’s consumer cannot get easy and reliable access to healthcare. The average appointment wait time for all specialties is 18.5 days and the wait time for an appointment with a family practice doctor is 19.5 days. In situations where care is needed immediately, patients rely on high cost treatment from emergency departments. Our product allows immediate access to a physician at a cost effective rate of $30 per call, avoiding lengthy wait times for appointments and urgent care providers.

Compared to the average costs of on-site care visits, the 24 x 7 Telehealth is an effective, immediate and cost effective solution. Office visits with physicians range from $100 to $400, and Emergency Room visits cost in excess of $1,000.
