Why are we introducing Paz Family Doc
Employee benefits have focused on group health insurance and group personal accident insurance. These remain important parts of an employee benefits program. But employees may need healthcare support long before a hospital visit. Everyday health concerns can also require timely medical advice, making easy access to doctors an important part of employee healthcare.
For example, an employee may need medical advice for a fever, persistent headache, skin concern, allergy or stomach problem. They may also want to speak to a doctor to understand whether a health concern needs further attention. These situations may not require a hospital visit, but having quick access to medical advice can make it easier to decide what to do next.
Taking time out of a workday, travelling to a clinic, finding an available doctor and waiting for an appointment can make seeking care more difficult than it needs to be. When access is easier, employees have a more convenient way to address health concerns without adding unnecessary friction to their day.
Online doctor consultations can help remove some of these practical barriers. If employees have to switch between different apps, navigate complicated journeys or deal with unnecessary redirects, accessing a healthcare benefit can become frustrating.
