Amazon Care, which offers telemedicine and in-person primary care services, was launched as a pilot program in September 2019. It was initially only offered to the company’s Seattle employees and their dependents, but Amazon later expanded it to all its employees in Washington state and said in March it would expand the service nationwide and to other employers.

Amazon Care’s first customer is Precor, a fitness company recently acquired by Peloton.

Amazon will be paid based on how many people in the company use the app, according to the report.

“We are excited about this partnership with Amazon Care, as it is an additional extension of service that we believe will make it easier for our employees and their families to receive the care they require so that small things don’t become big things,” Christopher “Skip” Wilson, Precor’s director of brand and communications, told Insider.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
