As employers enter the ‘new normal’ of managing health and wellness during Covid, one Tempe company has pivoted to meet needs of a remote workforce. Risk Assessment Group, a 20-year-old accredited employment screening company has launched a sister business, The Benefit Guard, with its premier service being Teledoc consults.
Teledoc services allow people who may otherwise be hesitant to visit the doctor 24/7 access to a physician by phone or online video consult. Those doctors can offer a diagnosis, treatment options and a prescription if medically necessary.
“We have worked closely with the human resources community for two decades and understand that now, more than ever, employee wellness is a growing concern,” says Brad Brigham, president, Risk Assessment Group. “Teledoc is a perfect solution to employee concerns about their health, so we knew that had to be a service we included with every package.”
Teladoc consults include anything from the cold and flu all the way to bronchitis or infections. U.S. board-certified doctors can be reached from the comfort of the home with no more than an average 10-minute response time and can even share the details of a visit with a primary physician by request.
Other offerings include savings on items ranging from vision to pet care, roadside assistance, dental care and identity theft.
With primary offices located in Phoenix, Arizona, Risk Assessment Group has been providing national background screening for over two decades. Their customers include Fortune 500 companies who employ thousands to small companies with less than 100 and their exemplary customer service has made them one of the most sought-after screening companies in the industry.
