Amazon Prime now comes with discounted access to One Medical health servicesAmazon acquired One Medical last year for $3.9 billion.

Amazon Prime subscribers now have access to a deeply discounted One Medical membership for primary care services. The company announced today that Prime members can sign up for just $99 a year, or $9 per month. A One Medical membership typically costs $199 annually. In addition to the individual plan, Prime members who sign up for One Medical can add up to five other people for $6 each.

Amazon announced its acquisition of One Medical in 2022 and finalized the $3.9 billion deal in February , when it began offering a temporary discount for One Medical memberships at $144 per year. It's now slashed that even further. One Medical has doctor's offices in major cities across the US, all of which will be available to Prime members who sign up. It offers all the basic health services, from annual physicals and maintenance for chronic conditions to same-day sick visits. One Medical also offers round-the-clock virtual care, or telehealth visits, and drop-in lab services. The membership doesn’t cover the cost of visits though; patients will still have to bill through their insurance or pay out of pocket.

Amazon has been pushing heavily into healthcare in recent years, with prescription services and even its own video- and text-based virtual clinic now among the perks of a Prime subscription. The company made its Amazon Clinic available to all states in the US over the summer, and began offering generic prescriptions for $5 a month with its RxPass at the beginning of the year. Amazon has also started offering drone deliveries for prescriptions in College Station, Texas.
