Hello Alvin, a mobile healthcare network providing consumers and their families direct access to healthcare through any mobile device, announced a partnership with epay that will bring its services to more than 22,000 retailers.
According to a press release, the partnership with epay, a global product processor and distributor serving approximately 294,000 retailer locations and 664,000 points of sale, brings the Hello Alvin HIPAA-compliant suite of mobile healthcare tools to select epay retail partners.
More than 1,200 truck stops and travel centers will be the first to access Hello Alvin in May, followed by Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores in June, and then rapidly expanding to thousands of distribution points throughout epay’s distribution network.
“Designed to meet consumer and family needs for 24-hour convenient access to healthcare, Hello Alvin empowers individuals and families – especially those with limited benefits or little to no insurance coverage – to significantly reduce out-of-pocket medical expenses,” says Arif Razvi, president and co-founder, Hello Alvin.
The Hello Alvin healthcare product will be sold as prepaid codes, priced at $100 annually. The annual subscription price covers the entire family, and includes unlimited Hello Alvin Nurse Line and Email-a-Doctor services. There is also access to the Teladoc physician telehealth network, allowing bilingual access to care for a wide range of non-emergency conditions.
There is a $45 co-pay — significantly less than the cost of treatment in an urgent care or emergency room.
“This partnership brings to our retail partners an opportunity to offer a unique service previously unavailable at their point of sale. We are proud to be at the forefront of this important paradigm shift that will transform access to care for millions of Americans,” said Bryan Zingg, president, epay North America.
We’re always on the lookout for opportunities to partner with innovators and disruptors.
