Step 4.
Resolve the issue
You simply log on to your account or
call Concierge Benefit Services’ toll free
telemedicine line, 24/7/365, to request
either a telephone or video
consultation.
A board-certified physician licensed in
your state reviews your medical history
and provides a consultation over the
phone or through video, just like an in-
person visit.
The physician recommends the
right treatment for your medical
issue. If a prescription is necessary,
it is electronically sent to your
pharmacy of choice.
Step 1.
Medical history
You are required to complete
your medical history online, by
phone, or by faxing a paper form
prior to requesting a consultation.
Step 5.
Continuity of care
The physician documents the results of
the consultation in your medical history.
Consultation information is sent to the
health plan and can be sent to your
primary care physician.
