Amazon’s telehealth program, Amazon Care, is now available nationwide, the company announced on Tuesday. Amazon Care offers both virtual care and in-person services. The Amazon Care model combines on-demand and in-person care and is meant as a solution from the search giant to address shortfalls in current offerings for healthcare.
The company also announced that the in-person services are rolling out in more than 20 new cities this year. Amazon says the expansion comes as it’s continuing to invest in growing its clinical care team and its in-person care services. The in-person service is already available in Seattle, Baltimore, Boston, Dallas, Austin, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. and Arlington. In 2022, Amazon plans to bring in-person care services to major metropolitan areas like San Francisco, Miami, Chicago, New York City and more.
