Hy-Vee Inc. last week announced the launch of RedBox Rx, a new subsidiary to provide low-cost telehealth and online pharmacy services that provides free shipment of medications for men’s and women’s health, mental health and other health conditions directly to patients’ homes. Telehealth consultation fees will range from free to $39, depending on the type of treatment, and will be provided through a partnership with MDbox, a platform of Reliant Immune Diagnostics. A three-step online process enables users to select a condition to treat, followed by a virtual visit with a credentialed and licensed provider, with prescribed treatments shipped within one to three days. RedBox Rx will not be accepting insurance, but patients can use their health savings account or flexible spending account cards to pay for telehealth visits and prescription costs. “Our mission at Reliant Immune Diagnostics with our MDbox platform is to provide affordable health care any place, any time,” said Henry Legere, founder and CEO of Reliant Immune Diagnostics. “We’re excited to partner with Hy-Vee to provide our nationwide network of 24/7/365 medical professionals and our technologies to support their vision for the future of health care.” RedBox Rx is also a complementary/alternative health care option for the covered conditions that employers can share with their employees at no cost to the employer, the companies said.
