As Covid-19 rages on, telemedicine is a viable treatment option, while access to discounted prescriptions is always a great benefit.

The National Restaurant Association is offering two programs to help members and their employees stay healthy and safe.

Through its new partner, Healthiest You, the Association is making a telemedicine option available to its members. The service is $7/month per employee. There are no co-pays, and all family members can use the service.

Those interested in participating in the telemedicine option can contact healthcareinfo@restaurant.org for full details.

The National Restaurant Association is offering members access to telemedicine and pharmacy-discount programs to help keep themselves and their employees healthy.

The Association is also providing free access to a pharmacy discount-card program that offers better pricing and discounts on prescriptions not covered under insurance. The program, administered through OptumRx®, leverages a large network and buying power to access reduced prices. Anyone can use the card, including those who are uninsured. Here are some features of the program.

  • The card is available now through email, text message, or at-home printing
  • Discounts are guaranteed on all FDA-approved medications at more than 60,000 pharmacies nationwide
  • Participating pharmacies include Walmart, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Target, Costco, Good Neighbor, CVS, Duane Reade, and Sam’s Club
  • The card is available to all employees and their families at no cost — and zero cost to employers
