E-health
The COVID pandemic has shown that we can do more online than we ever thought possible. It’s no surprise that e-retailers like Amazon have thrived – and now they look set to disrupt another industry: healthcare. What if your Amazon Prime subscription came with a free same-day doctor’s appointment? Since its announcement in March, Amazon’s vision has become clearer. It plans to offer 24/7 chat access to clinicians, telemedicine access, in-home diagnostics, health provider house calls in select cities, and prescription drug delivery. All, most likely, at the easy click of a button. Incumbent healthcare providers must adapt or die.
