The iCan Benefit Group is a United States based family of companies in the fields of health insurance, telehealth, marketing, and medical bill advocacy. The group also launched an on-demand telehealth subsidiary called InteractiveMD, allowing for the extension of telemedicine benefits to members of its group health insurance programs, as well as general consumers who wish to sign up exclusively for telehealth benefits. The functionality of the real-time video consultations offered through the telehealth portal was recently demonstrated for a local ABC affiliate.[2]
In June 2009, the iCan Group's insurance brokerage firm, iCan Benefit, was featured on Pitchmen, a Discovery Channel show hosted by their late spokesperson, Billy Mays.[3]
