Telehealth Made Simple: Why Teladoc Is a Game-Changer for Small Business Owners

Running a small business means juggling a lot: clients, payroll, Teladoc benefitsmarketing, strategy, and everything in between. Your own health can easily fall to the bottom of the priority list. Teladoc benefits through the National Business Association changes that by giving you fast, convenient access to care when you need it. When you pair Teladoc with a membership through the National Business Association starting at just $20/month you get both essential healthcare access and business-growth support in one package.

What is Teladoc

Teladoc is a virtual care platform that gives you on-demand access to licensed medical professionals — from wherever you are. Whether it’s your home office, a coffee shop, or on the road, you can connect via phone or video.

Here are some of the key capabilities:

  • Primary care, urgent care issues (cold/flu, allergies, sinus infections) handled virtually.
  • Mental health support, condition management, and specialist referrals.
  • It integrates with insurance plans; costs can even be zero for certain visits.

 

Why this matters for you (yes, you—business owner)

  • Convenience = time saved. You don’t have to take a full day off, battle traffic, wait in a crowded waiting room. With Teladoc, you’re online in minutes.
  • Access wherever you are. Whether you’re traveling for business, working from home, or dealing with a personal emergency—care is available.
  • Cost-efficiency. Traditional in-person visits often come with bigger copays, travel time, and lost productivity. Teladoc can cut those hidden costs.

 

Range of Services Offered

Some providers only offer break-fix services (you call them when something breaks). Others provide managed IT services—ongoing support, monitoring, and strategic planning. 

How Teladoc is packaged within our memberships

Here’s the part you’ll especially like: when you join the National Business Association, you get Teladoc access as part of the benefits bundle. Memberships begin at just $20/month, which is a tiny fraction of the value you receive.

That means: you’re not just signing up for networking or business tools—you’re also locking in a health-care safety net.

This dual benefit (business + health) positions you better—professionally and personally.

 

Real-world scenarios

  • Imagine you’re prepping an important client proposal, and your child gets sick after hours. Instead of panicking or leaving work, you use Teladoc to connect with a doctor right away. You’re covered, and you keep your workflow.
  • You’re traveling for a meeting in another state. Suddenly you come down with seasonal allergies or a rash. Instead of searching for an urgent care near you, log in to Teladoc, solve the issue quickly, and stay focused on your business goals.
  • You’re balancing small-business stress, and mental health support becomes essential. Teladoc’s virtual therapy or counseling options become an accessible path—without the stigma or scheduling issues of traditional in-office therapy.
