In a move to offset sagging electronics sales while going deeper into the growing home health trend, Best Buy is partnering with multi-state provider Atrium Health on at-home health. In a Tuesday (March 7) press release announcing the initiative, the two companies said, “This partnership takes advantage of Atrium Health’s leadership position in telemedicine, including a well-established hospital at home program,” adding that “when aligned with Best Buy Health’s existing expertise and abilities — as well as Best Buy’s strengths in innovative omnichannel experience, distinctive in-home service, and world-class supply chain — together, Atrium Health and Best Buy Health will address the complex requirements of these programs.”.

MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sprinter Health, an on-demand mobile health and diagnostics company bringing personalized and affordable healthcare services to the home, today announced a partnership with Firefly Health, a health plan and virtual-first care innovator with a mission of delivering half-priced health care that’s twice as good, clinically and emotionally. The partnership aims to improve access to care while saving downstream costs by integrating Sprinter Health’s in-home clinical services into Firefly Health virtual primary care. Access to quality preventive care in the US remains a significant challenge - 124 million adults have gone over a year without visiting a PCP, 34 million people have diabetes and 21% are undiagnosed, and 33 million adults are unaware they have kidney disease1. The typical primary care journey is clearly not working. Patients often wait weeks for an appointment, spend hours of time to get ~12 minutes with a doctor, and then have to navigate complex referral processes for downstream imaging and diagnostic procedures

HealthTech firms are addressing this last-mile challenge with services that bridge virtual and IRL appointments. Gap closures between virtual care and the need for physical testing and data are major hurdles to the make increasing in-home care model work to their fullest extent, and they necessitate a small army of skilled clinicians to go into homes to get samples and specimens
