Instacart and DispatchHealth recently launched a partnership that allows DispatchHealth to provide food interventions to patients in need of nutrition support.
Food insecurity adds an annual expenditure of about $52 billion, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. A new partnership seeks to move the needle on this stat.
Grocery technology company Instacart and home care company DispatchHealth are collaborating to prescribe food interventions to patients, the companies announced last week. Denver-based DispatchHealth offers urgent care and recovery care in patients’ homes, while San Francisco-based Instacart Health uses Instacart’s platform to provide access to healthy food and partners with healthcare organizations for food as medicine programs. Its recent partners include Alignment Healthcare, Kaiser Permanente and Mount Sinai Solutions.
