Amazon expands teleheath services nationwide
The Seattle-based company announced the expansion of its Amazon Care program, saying the pandemic generated a high demand for telemedicine and in-home care services. Amazon launched the program in 2019 in order to give employees and their families in Washington state immediate access to health care services.
The program connects patients with medical professionals via chat or video conference on the Amazon Care app. The program also includes an in-person care feature, where a nurse or doctor can go to the patient's home for additional care, if needed, including routine blood draws and listening to a patient’s lungs. Patients can also have their prescriptions delivered to their door.
