Your health is important to us, especially during flu season. To help you stay healthy, we’ve provided you with access to Teladoc® as part of your benefits. With Teladoc, you can talk with a board-certified doctor by phone or video in minutes — not hours or days. We’re also passing along tips to avoid the flu from Teladoc’s Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Lew Levy:

Tip 1:
First and foremost, get your flu shot.

Tip 2:
Frequently wash your hands with warm water and soap (count to 60).

Tip 3:
Cover your mouth and nose when you sneeze.

Tip 4:
Avoid touching your eyes, lips, and mouth.

Tip 5:
Sanitize common areas at home and in the office, including keyboards and countertops.

Tip 6:
Register your Teladoc account today so you’re ready to connect with a doctor at the first signs of the flu.

Tip 7:
If you do get the flu, stay home so you don’t infect others. Then contact Teladoc for quick, convenient care from the comfort of home.

We wish you good health this cold and flu season and throughout the year! To begin using your Teladoc membership, register your account today at www.teladoc.com. If you have any questions about your Teladoc membership, please do not hesitate to let us know.
