Next Step: http://hubs.ly/H0372-c0 • It’s becoming harder and harder to find a health insurance policy that is affordable and offers unlimited copays for you and your family to see the doctor. • While I’m of the opinion that should be pretty far down on your list of priorities when deciding on a policy, there’s something new that’s slowly changing my mind. • We’ll get to that a little bit later, but first let’s take a look at if this is something your health insurance policy should do? • Do you need copays? • I’ve been on record for over three years about my general distastes for this coveted benefit. At the center of my argument was cost inequality. • Normally the copay plan would cost you substantially more money each month than you could ever hope to get out of that benefit. • Math never lies, well at least if you do it right... • Since I first laid out this simple math equation, a lot has changed with health insurance to make that idea more true and less true all at the same time. • What has changed? • Two years ago the Affordable Care Act was officially unleashed on the country and as a result things got more affordable for some people and A LOT more expensive for others. • The subsidy or tax credit game made it almost impossible to make blanket statements about what benefits we’re a good value or not, since everyone wasn’t paying the same price for the same plan. • On top of that, the price gap between copay and non-copay plans got smaller. • How can you go to the doctor as many times as you need? • Have you heard of this new thing called tele medicine? • If you have, good. • If you haven’t, it’s simply having a doctor's visit over a video call. • I guess the name could use a little work… But that’s what they’re calling it for now. • You essentially pay a flat monthly fee and you can book as many appointments as you need, whenever you want. • Does your kid have a fever at 2:34 a.m.? No problem. • Come down with something over the weekend and don’t want to go to an urgent care? • Done. • Does it sound too good to be true? • I guess when you think about it, it kinda does. • But here’s how the economics of it work. • When you remove all of the excess stuff surrounding a traditional doctor's visit, it becomes a lot more cost effective. • No nurses or receptionists to deal with or charts manually write in and file. These new services use EHR or Electronic Health Records so that whatever is discussed and treated with your tele doctor that information can be easily shared your regular doctor. • The workload is also shared with thousands of doctors across the country. • Speaking of doctors, what kind of doctors can you see? • You’re obviously not going to be getting a video call from your doctor down the street, but you will be talking to doctor who is licensed in your home state. • Here’s a list of some of the more common things you can ring up one of these on-demand docs for. • ● Cold and flu symptoms • ● Bronchitis • ● Allergies • ● Poison ivy • ● Pink eye • ● Urinary tract infection • ● Respiratory infection • ● Sinus problems • ● Ear infection • They can even write you a short-term prescription for medications like. • ● Amoxicillin • ● Azithromycin • ● Bactrim DS • ● Augmentin • ● Cipro • ● Tessalon Perles • ● Flonase Nasal Spray • ● Pyridium • ● Prednisone • ● Diflucan • You’ll also have access to a national network of pediatricians.
