Experts: Amazon Clinic Unlikely to Lower In-Office Visits Article from GlobeSt.com with commentary from TSCG MD's Craig Gambardella With Amazon, you can expect to get basic household needs in record time with their convenient Prime shipping model but what does that look like for healthcare? The widespread offering of Amazon Clinic promises virtual care from licensed clinicians and medications for “everyday” type medical concerns, which has potentially elevated the acceptance of telehealth. Does Amazon's new fast and convenient healthcare service threaten to put a dent in doctor's office visits as we know them? Not Likely. Visit the link below for Craig Gambardella's take on why this will have little to no impact on the healthcare industry.

Amazon introduces One Medical for Prime! This plan allows members to access healthcare services for just $9/month. The subscription offer provides members with unlimited 24/7 virtual visits at no extra cost. It also offers the convenience of online scheduling for same- or next-day appointments at One Medical's extensive network of over 200 clinics. In an effort to seamlessly integrate healthcare into its ecosystem, Amazon Prime continues to diversify its offerings. This move follows the nationwide rollout of the Amazon Clinic telehealth platform and the introduction of RxPass. Amazon's latest offering reflects its commitment to enhancing accessibility and convenience for Prime members. It also sets the stage for a showdown between tech giants craving for a bigger piece of the healthcare pie. How do you think this impacts patients? Let me know in the comments.

Amazon Clinic, the virtual healthcare marketplace by Amazon, has introduced a new option for treating cough, cold, and flu. Users can select this option, consult licensed clinicians, and receive treatment, including prescriptions that can be fulfilled by Amazon Pharmacy or other pharmacies. Dr. Nworah Ayogu, the chief medical officer and general manager of Amazon Clinic, emphasized the importance of prompt treatment for conditions like the flu. Amazon Clinic, launched in November 2022, serves as a platform connecting users with healthcare providers for various common health concerns. Amazon's recent ventures into the healthcare industry, including the launch of Amazon Pharmacy and previous telehealth initiatives, reflect the company's ongoing efforts to expand its presence in the healthcare sector. #BroadcastRepublic #Amazon #AmazonClinic #VirtualHealthcare #Telemedicine #HealthcareServices #AmazonPharmacy #HealthTech #CoughTreatment #ColdTreatment #FluTreatment #TelehealthProviders #DigitalHealthcare 🌐 Read More: Broadcastrepublic.com

Amazon has expanded its own version of telehealth, Amazon Clinic, nationwide. The service follows the company's typical playbook of providing convenient access tied to their other products and services (right now Amazon Pharmacy), and a better customer experience. According to the press release announcing the expansion, Amazon is working to add other conditions. It's only matter of time before Amazon Clinic adds the ability to treat MSK conditions. They're one of the most common reasons patients visit their primary care doctor or an Urgent Care. I'm curious to see the approach here. Partner with an existing virtual MSK company (Hinge, Sword, Kaia, or relative newcomer RightMove) or build in house? Offer virtual PT or just diagnosis and treatment? Expand vertical integration to sell patients braces, OTC pain relievers, patches, rubs, and joint supplements? Many MSK conditions are best diagnosed and treated via in-person evaluation and possibly an imaging study. Is this on Amazon Clinic's road map? One could imagine the service eventually offering an appointment at a physical One Medical location (or MSK equivalent). Guess we'll find out. #health #healthcare #medicine #bigretail #healthtech #msk

Amazon Clinic, the virtual healthcare marketplace, now offers treatment for common issues like coughs, colds, and flu. Users can easily access this option through the "Find a treatment" list on Amazon Clinic, where they can compare telehealth providers based on pricing and response times. After filling out an intake form detailing symptoms and health history, users connect with a licensed clinician via secure messaging or video call. The clinician can then provide treatment, which may include a prescription filled through Amazon Pharmacy or another pharmacy. Dr. Nworah Ayogu, Amazon Clinic's Chief Medical Officer, emphasized the importance of prompt treatment for conditions like the flu. Connecting with a provider quickly allows customers to explore relief options and receive suitable care within minutes or hours, rather than days or weeks. #digitalorators #do #amazon #amazonclinic #clinic #virtualhealthcare #healthcare #telemedicine #digitalhealthsolutions #tech #technology #healthtech

Unlike general office space, medical clinics are not seeing a reduction in demand post Covid. Telemedicine is not an effective substitute for seeing a doctor in person. Most diagnostics in a clinic involve tissue samples, high priced imaging equipment and other procedures which cannot be done in your home. #medicalrealestate #healthcarerealestate
