To help you stay healthy, safe, and connected, Fitbit is introducing a new tab in the Fitbit app to give our community access to helpful information, motivation, and resources about COVID-19. Starting today, users with the Fitbit app and a Fitbit account in select countries* will see a new tab on the bottom right, titled COVID-19. In this new tab, you can access tools to help you stay active and healthy from home, connect with a doctor virtually and stay up-to-date with all of the latest information from the World Health Organization in order to stay safe and informed.
Read on to learn more about the resources we’ve made available for you.
What’s New?
Connect with a doctor virtually. Not feeling well? Users in the US can get the care they need while staying safe at home by booking a virtual doctor’s visit with the PlushCare team directly from the Fitbit app.
PlushCare’s board-certified doctors can address medical needs from ongoing conditions and prescription refills to urgent issues, like screening for COVID-19. Become a member to get access to a 30 day free trial or login to your existing account to book your virtual appointment. The next available appointment is typically same-day and can be paid for with insurance or credit card.
PlushCare is in-network with most major insurers and to help make the process as smooth as possible, PlushCare will provide your copay amount in real-time. If you don’t currently have insurance, you can still book a virtual appointment with PlushCare. Without insurance, a visit costs $99 + monthly membership fee.
Stay up-to-date on the latest information. Easily access all of the latest, real-time updates from organizations like the World Health Organization to stay safe, informed, and healthy.
