Tonya here… As we all know, being a working parent is a juggle, but especially when you have a child home sick, or you need to take time off due to a minor illness. How many of us have had to take time off work to take ourselves, or our children, to the doctor for runny noses, coughs and other minor illnesses? Well, I’m here to show you a service being provided that is going to help change that. Thank you to Modern Medical Plans for sponsoring this post. All opinions are my own.
Visiting a doctor’s office takes time. And when you’re going in for a simple question, a prescription refill or another minor issue, it can often feel like you’re spending far too much time to see a doctor.
You likely need to take time away from work to drive to the doctor’s office and usually wait for what seems like ages in the waiting room. And that’s if you’re lucky enough to get an appointment in the first place. Sometimes a family practice is so booked up that you have to wait weeks for an appointment.
If you want to see a doctor at a clinic, you have to hope to be able to get there during their hours. If you get sick or need to ask a question outside of clinic hours, then you hope urgent care or the emergency room can see you… but those will certainly have a long wait.
On top of the hassle of wasting my precious time, I also hate having to sit in a waiting room full of germs that increase my chance of catching a virus.

Did you know that a service like this exists in the marketplace (and that it is so affordable)?
I had no idea until now. This is definitely a service I could use, especially now that my medical insurance is no longer covered by the military (which it was while I was married) and I now have hefty co-pays and other costs.
Please note that the service is available in the US only.
