Costco members can now access virtual primary care through a partnership with online marketplace Sesame. For just $29, Costco members can receive virtual checkups, virtual follow-ups with a doctor, and virtual mental health visits. Sesame specifically targets the uninsured and those with high deductibles who need to pay cash. By not accepting health insurance, Sesame is able to keep prices low. This move by Costco follows other major retailers, such as Amazon and Walmart, in offering health care services. The partnership aims to provide members with high-quality and affordable care that aligns with Costco’s reputation for quality and value.
