Many health insurers and integrated health plans are not waiting for patients or providers to adopt telemedicine platforms. Health Plans such as Humana and others have established telehealth presence, adopting their own platforms. They have discovered the cost savings reducing clinic visits, early treatment with easy accessibility. The time and cost factor for most patients can involve a half or even a whole day investment. Office visits have a copay of $0 and a copay of $5 for labs.
Health insurer Humana and virtual care provider Doctor On Demand has announced the launch of On Hand, an innovative and affordable health plan that centers on comprehensive virtual primary care for members. On Hand addresses the number one reason small businesses don’t offer health insurance– cost — by offering a plan 50% lower than the industry standard monthly premiums.
The platform allows a potential patient to sign up, find a primary care physician, make an appointment and have a virtual visit from home, work or wherever from a desktop, smartphone or tablet PC. All fees are fully disclosed. Some insurance plans are already integrated into the Doctor on Demand Platform, and the platform allows you to search for your plan.
On Hand Primary Care Plan Overview
Employers and members who elect this primary care plan will gain access to a breadth of in-network virtual care services, as well as an expanded clinical care team to help navigate the healthcare system. Patients will have one dedicated primary care physician and access to preventive care, urgent care and behavioral health— all through video visits. On Hand will provide patients with a standard medical device kit consisting of a digital blood pressure cuff, thermometer, and log
“Patients will also get access to their digital health records, secure messaging and have more control over how they are shared. If needed, patients will receive doctor or specialist referrals for in-person visits that stay within Humana’s network, all supported by the clinical care team to help seamlessly coordinate continued care.
