Teladoc for online medical care
What is Teladoc?
MSU faculty/staff and their dependents who are currently enrolled in an MSU health plan (including those with insurance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA)) have access to Teladoc - an online medical care service that gives you 24/7 access to a healthcare professional via web, phone, or mobile app in minutes. Use Teladoc to get help for a range of conditions including cold/flu, bronchitis, allergies, pink eye, dermatology and more. Eligible employees and their dependents, who are over the age of 18, can also receive medical care for behavioral health (depression, anxiety, grief counseling, addiction, etc.). If medically necessary, the doctor will have a prescription sent to the pharmacy of your choice. This is a great option when you need non-urgent medical assistance.
