Hello everyone. I just wanted to share my experience with BumblebeeMD. I have the $200 annual subscription with unlimited video, email and phone consultations with a dr and other benefits. It's been a real time and money saver for us. I have VA health care, and the nearest facility is 45 minutes away. When I go to the dr, I either have to bring my 1-yr-old or take him to drop in day care. Between driving to the VA and getting child care for my appointment, I'm out 3 hrs of time, and $30 ($10 in gas and $20 in child care); not to mention it can take a week to get an appointment.
I've used BumblebeeMD 3 x already, and it's been wonderful: once for an eye infection, once for a skin infection, and once for my 1-yr-old. It doesn't replace the need for lab tests or pediatric visits, but it suits most of my adult medical needs. It's also great during the weekend or while traveling.
I just thought I'd share my experience with video/telemedicine subscription services for ppl out there that are uninsured, are about to be uninsured, have high-copay insurance or VA insurance. I believe the individual plans are cheaper. I am paying more because my subscription services 4 people.
