*Check your Evidence of Coverage or policy or call the customer service phone number on your Blue Shield member ID card to determine if your plan includes access to Teladoc. Employer-sponsored plans that include Teladoc access may have out-of-pocket costs that vary by plan. If you have a high-deductible health plan or a PPO Savings plan, you may have to pay the full provider rates until you have met your deductible. Please confirm pricing when you schedule your appointment.
