Rolling out in 2022 to Georgia and Tennessee, virtual primary care is primarily aimed at small businesses as it blends affordability and convenience, according to the announcement.
The model offers unlimited virtual visits to primary care providers with $0 copays, as well as access to lab and specialist visits when recommended by a primary care physician.
“We’ve seen a huge shift in how care is delivered over the past few years,” said Meghan Joyce, Oscar COO and executive vice president of platform. “Today, people are more likely to engage with a virtual provider than ever before. These plans offer more convenience at a lower cost, by empowering members to access a doctor that knows them, right on their smartphone, 24/7.”
At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 2–3 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
