Walmart has expanded its $4 Doctor on Demand telehealth initiative for its employees to three new US states.

In a move that demonstrates how digital health solutions are catching on with big US employers and health systems, the new expanded programme went live on 1st January.

It allows employees in Colorado, Minnesota, and Wisconsin to access a new Doctor on Demand program, connecting patients with an online doctor, according to press reports.

Qualifying employees can access a personal online doctor who serves as the primary care physician on the service.

This can help patients by coordinating care with other doctors covered by their health plan, and tasks such as ordering lab work, as well as managing their conditions.
