Reducing medical costs

I’m Miriam  Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY,-and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money

 

M Medical costs are rising.  Which means we need to research, compare and discover ways to maximize our dollars for medical costs.  An option becoming popular is telemedicine.

 

V Summarizing: it offers basic health care through virtual visits with a doctor by phone or video chat.  Its ideal for minor concerns, colds, infections, stomach ache, and more.  Cost is usually $50.00 compared to $80.00 for an office visit and $125.00 to an urgent care facility visit.  Comparing that cost to full costs before your deductible might be a good option for you.

 

M  Another benefit is simply learning more about your symptoms from information on the internet. There may be options other than medical intervention to improve your health.
