Virtual Medicine for Nannies

Virtual Medicine for Nannies

With Virtual Medicine, your household employee will have 24/7 access to a physician by phone, secure messaging, or video. They can get answers to simple or complex medical questions, schedule a consult, and share pictures or videos with a doctor. It’s perfect for diagnosing and treating everyday ailments like colds, allergies, rashes, injuries, and more. The virtual medicine service can also send prescriptions directly to your employee’s pharmacy when appropriate.

If your employee doesn’t have health insurance, they may be heading to urgent care every time they get sick or injured. That can add up to hundreds or even thousands of dollars in medical costs. Or, they skip getting medical attention and wind up calling in sick and missing work. And that means you’re scrambling for backup care.

Here are some virtual medicine providers to consider:

PlushCare

Sesame

Teladoc
