Meijer in Grand Rapids has announced a new partnership with a virtual-first health care platform, WellSync, to provide customers with what it says is easy, affordable access to virtual health care services for common conditions.
Through WellSync, Meijer customers can receive virtual treatment for everyday health concerns such as a cold, flu, allergies, hair loss, and other conditions, all from their own home.
The service costs $29.99 per visit, requires no insurance, and can be accessed through the Meijer website or its pharmacy app.
“We’re focused on making health care simple and convenient for our customers,” says Don Sanderson, chief merchandising and marketing officer at Meijer. “As a one-stop shop, this new virtual care option helps our customers stay healthy year-round.”
The virtual visits are conducted by board-certified health care professionals, providing patients with personalized care and treatment recommendations.
Meijer and WellSync state they are dedicated to removing barriers for those who may struggle with traditional access to health care settings, whether due to busy schedules, transportation challenges, or other limitations.
Meijer customers interested in WellSync can reach the service in the following ways:
- Online: Visit here and select Virtual Care to get started.
- Meijer App: Open the app, navigate to Pharmacy, and tap the Virtual Care tile for fast access.
- Text: Text “Care” to 75049 to access the service on a mobile device.
