HealthJoy Expands Partnership With Teladoc Health to Launch Virtual Primary Care

HealthJoy, a benefits navigation platform that amplifies employer benefit strategies to contain healthcare costs and helps members lead healthier lives, has announced an expanded partnership with Teladoc Health, Inc., the global leader in whole-person virtual care, to introduce virtual primary care.

HealthJoy Virtual Primary Care, powered by Teladoc Health, provides a fully integrated primary care experience that supports members throughout their entire healthcare journey.

The solution will further enhance HealthJoy's comprehensive suite of virtual care offerings that already includes adult and adolescent mental health, chronic care management, dermatology, employee assistance program services, musculoskeletal therapy, nutrition, tobacco cessation, and urgent care. By creating a seamless, fully integrated, navigable healthcare experience, HealthJoy is removing the barriers that have historically prevented employees from accessing high-quality, affordable care.

"We're in a unique position to support the one in three Americans who have little or no access to primary care," said Justin Holland, CEO and co-founder, HealthJoy. "This is an important step in our journey to improve access to primary care and simplify benefits navigation to make it easier for employees to be healthy and well. We're proud to partner with Teladoc Health to make our vision a reality."

The company provides in-depth benefits navigation to more than 1,000 U.S. employers, supporting the management and delivery of a premier healthcare and benefits experience to nearly half a million employees and dependents.

"As nationwide provider shortages continue to persist, we are eager to see this expansion with HealthJoy provide members with easier and more convenient access to primary care," said Kelly Bliss, President, U.S. Group Health at Teladoc Health.
