RelyMD, the state’s only independent telehealth service, is offering free virtual doctor visits to North Carolina residents affected by Hurricane Matthew who need non-emergency care. By using promo code MATTHEW via the RelyMD app, website or a phone call, those suffering from the severe flooding and destruction of the storm can see one of RelyMD’s doctors at no cost. The code is valid until 11:59 p.m. on Oct. 20, 2016.

A virtual health service that provides 24/7/365 access to board-certified emergency medicine doctors for both children and adults, RelyMD’s web and mobile-based service allows patients to quickly obtain high-quality medical care – via computer, smartphone, tablet, or phone call – with one of RelyMD’s 100 Raleigh-based physicians.

“Hurricane Matthew continues to have devastating effects on the lives of so many people in our state,” said Dr. Bobby Park, co-founder of RelyMD. “We’re hopeful that by providing these free visits, we can aid in reducing the burden at hospitals in the areas hit hardest and also grant access to medical care to those who many not be able to get to their doctor or hospital easily because of flooding or other storm damage.”
