What You Should Know:

– Optum Perks, the leading prescription discount provider launches its new telehealth solution, offering affordable on-demand care and prescription treatments for a wide range of conditions, starting at just $25.

– The new telehealth offering expands its commitment to affordability and accessibility, ensuring everyone has a chance at quality care, regardless of insurance status.

No video calls, no appointments, just fast, affordable relief

Optum Perks’ online telehealth lets users address hundreds of conditions, from acne and coughs to high blood pressure, at their convenience. No more waiting rooms or scheduling hassles. Simply answer a quick questionnaire about your symptoms, and a board-certified provider will review your information and deliver a diagnosis and treatment plan in 15 minutes or less.

Saving money, one prescription at a time

Optum Perks understands the financial strain of healthcare. That’s why their telehealth service goes beyond basic care. Users can access birth control, cold and flu medication, and even refills for existing medications, all without breaking the bank.

More choices, more control

With Optum Perks online care, you’re in the driver’s seat. Choose where you get your prescriptions filled – a local pharmacy or convenient home delivery. Plus, get access to exclusive Optum Perks discount cards, guaranteeing the lowest possible price on any medication. Their network of 65,000 pharmacies nationwide ensures you’ll find the best deal near you.

“All Americans deserve access to affordable healthcare,” says Ken Malley, president of Optum Perks. This new service empowers individuals who might otherwise skip medications or forgo diagnoses, offering a reliable, accessible alternative. By bringing the cost of care down and removing traditional barriers, Optum Perks is paving the way for a healthier future, one $25 appointment at a time.
