Retail & Nontraditional Health Care Entering The Market

Retail & Nontraditional Health Care Entering The Market

Over the past decade, urgent care centers and health clinics within grocery stores, pharmacies, and other retail establishments have popped up to deliver an increasing amount of care to adults and children.¹ These retail health centers can be a great place to deliver preventive care, like vaccines, and non-emergency acute or after-hours care.

Behavioral health is seeing shifts in how health care is delivered to consumers. In part due to the pandemic shifting everything virtual, there was a big uptick in digital mental health start-up funding from investors in 2020, with $588 million invested in the first six months of 2020, compared to $539 million in all of 2019, $658 million in 2018, and $273 million in 2017. In the first half of 2020, there were 27 venture funding deals in behavioral health alone.²

In this webinar we will discuss the current state of retail and nontraditional health care in the market. We will discuss its successes and challenges. Finally, we will discuss where we see this going and what it means for traditional health care.
