As part of the collaboration, Iora will open two new primary care practices in the Boston area that deliver care under a team-based model in which a physician, health coach and behavioral health specialist work together to coordinate patient care.

Patients will benefit from same-day or next-day visits and 24/7 access to a provider for urgent care services. Providers will also offer email, phone or video-chat connectivity.

The two new locations are set to open in September.
