It always scares me, when I hear about the US healthcare. I don't know what Telemed is, but by the name alone, probably something about telephone and a doctor? Sametime, here in Denmark: It was this weekend, my wife got stung by a bee. It caused her middelfinger to sweel to double size, and it became a little black/blue. Our doctor (8 doctors in a shared practise in the town, all free) where closed, so we called the Danish 'Doctor-watch' (no payment), and the doctor we got, sent my wife a link on an sms, it opened up a video-conference, he could see the finger, prescribe some antibiotics. 10 minutes max. The finger is better now, when she is showing it to me.
I had to pay the 10 dollars for the meds, but nothing else. And I know that I pay more in taxes than in the US, but I woulden't trade you. :-)
