“The mission of First Stop Health is to provide easy access to convenient, high quality healthcare at an affordable price,” said Dr. Friedman. “Rather than ration care, as so many believe is the future of medicine, First Stop Health provides unlimited access to care at no cost to the employees and the dependent family members of our clients,” he added.
“Employees with insurance are choosing to consult with First Stop Health doctors via telemedicine in place of unnecessarily higher cost, time-consuming visits to physical facilities,” said Dr. Friedman.
First Stop Health offers its clients a contractual guarantee that the cost of the service will not exceed the direct healthcare cost savings realized. “To our knowledge, we are the only participant in the telemedicine industry to offer this type of absolute guarantee,” said Spain.
“Our telemedicine service provides a rare win-win for employees and employers in today’s employee benefits environment. We save money for employers, while improving the lives of members and their families,” Spain added.
