RelayHealth can enhance your healthcare benefit plan. A growing number of employers and employer coalitions expect their health insurers to offer RelayHealth as a member benefit.
Reduce healthcare costs
Independent research shows that online doctor-patient communication can reduce costs related to physician office visits by $1.92 Per Member Per Month (PMPM) and reduce total healthcare spending by $3.69 PMPM. Observed reductions in total and physician office-based spending greatly exceeded the cost of reimbursement for webVisits.
