NAR Offers TeleHealth to Realtors at No Cost

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Realtors who register by April 15 will get no-cost round-the-clock access to online healthcare for two months.

CHICAGO – The National Association of Realtors® (NAR) announced Thursday that it will expand access to Members TeleHealth at no cost to its members who register before April 15. The program is as part of NAR’s larger “Right Tools, Right Now” initiative that relaunched on March 27.

“While the nation continues to grapple with the COVID-19 crisis, we’re doing everything we can to ensure our members and their families can stay safe, healthy and secure,” says NAR CEO Bob Goldberg. “After launching ‘Right Tools, Right Now’ last week, we promised to closely monitor the effects of this pandemic and update the initiative as needed. I’m pleased to announce today the addition of Members TeleHealth, a long-term Realtor Benefits partner offering, to the RTRN toolkit.”

Members TeleHealth provides around-the-clock access to non-emergency healthcare from more than 2,300 board-certified U.S. physicians. Common issues addressed through telemedicine include allergies, asthma, rashes, joint aches, flu and nausea, among others.

Starting now, NAR is funding two months of services for members if they currently lack access to telemedicine and enroll in the program by April 15. NAR says it’s expecting significant interest from its members, and that it negotiated a discounted rate for members who want to retain the coverage after the two-month free period ends.

“Medical professionals are urging Americans who are sick to stay home, and telemedicine is playing a critical role protecting our communities and our health care workers,” says NAR President Vince Malta. “We continue to encourage members to limit their exposure and decrease the chance of spreading illnesses to others.”

Through “Right Tools, Right Now,” Realtors can also access low-cost or no-cost webinars with tips for managing finances in uncertain times; educational resources to build or hone professional skills; and a free copy of the Profile of Home Buyers and Sellers, among other business-critical resources.

    Debra, Thanks for posting that good news. Just to be sure how to access RTRN, we need to go to the NAR website and we can find the link to RTRN to sign up for the telemedical coverage and other items referred to by NAR President. Correct?
