Addressing the Chronic Disease Burden
More than half of adults in the U.S. live with at least one chronic disease. Digital health programs offer a valuable opportunity to provide continuous, personalized support for managing these conditions, but enrollment barriers often prevent individuals from accessing these benefits. Many people are simply unaware of the programs available through their health plans.
Seamless Access Through Amazon
Amazon’s Health Benefits Connector addresses this challenge by proactively surfacing relevant health benefits to customers when they search for related products or devices on the platform. This integration with Teladoc Health’s programs allows eligible Amazon customers to easily discover and enroll in programs that can help them manage their chronic conditions.
