Teladoc Health announced this week that it was partnering with Amazon to launch voice-activated virtual care on Alexa-supported Echo devices.
According to the companies, U.S. customers around the country can connect with a Teladoc provider via audio at any time for general medical needs.
"By introducing and integrating our virtual-first care experience with Echo devices, we are providing an innovative and convenient way for users to connect with a doctor," Donna Boyer, chief product officer at Teladoc Health, said in a statement.
"We are meeting consumers where they are, to continue to deliver value and high-quality care to members," Boyer said.
