Online treatment and pre-prescription delivery… Amazon Care

In Seattle, USA, where Amazon is headquartered, there is a program called Amazon Care, which provides a comprehensive medical service that allows you to send medical examinations and prescriptions directly to your home through a dedicated app for Amazon employees and families. .

Amazon Care is one of Amazon’s recent achievements in healthcare. Amazon acquired online pharmacy service PillPack in 2018, and earlier this year partnered with six medical institutions interested in developing Alexa technology to process patient information. Amazon is also focusing on in-house health insurance programs. In 2018, it collaborated with Berkshire Hathaway and JPMorgan Chase to establish a new healthcare company for employees of the three companies.

Meanwhile, Amazon has partnered with Oasis Medical Group, a new Washington-based medical institution, to start offering Amazon Care, an online medical service for employees. The service is intended for employees in Seattle, but plans to expand the service to Amazon employees in other regions.

Amazon Care included not only online medical services, but also medical services that go directly to the home or office and deliver prescriptions to the house. It provides both virtual and face-to-face care.

You can receive online medical services using a dedicated app, and you can use diagnosis, preventive health counseling, and vaccination counseling for symptoms that require prompt action such as colds, allergies, infections, and minor injuries. With a text chat in the app, you can exchange messages with the nurse in minutes and get all health advice and advice right away. In addition, it is also possible for a doctor or nurse to provide more specialized treatment through video chat. Amazon Care requires an iOS 12 or higher or Android 6.0 or higher smartphone to use the dedicated app.

Amazon Care also provides a service called Mobile Care that dispatches nurses to homes or offices when it determines that a nurse or doctor needs more detailed examination through text or video chat. In addition, you can deliver prescriptions in less than two hours with the Care Courier, which sends your prescriptions to your home or office.

The service is available to Amazon employees in Seattle, as well as employees over the age of 18, spouses, and dependents. Require you to purchase Amazon Health Insurance. Amazon Care services are available Monday through Friday from 8 am to 21:00, and Saturday from 8 am to 18:00. Related information can be found here .
