Amazon employees won’t have to go far for relief if they throw out their back while shipping packages across the country. The online shopping giant plans to provide primary care to its workforce through 20 new health centers.
Amazon is partnering with Crossover Health — a national medical group for self-insured employers — to begin work on the health centers, and provide medical staffing. These centers will open in five regions across the U.S. in the coming months, the first of which will be in Las Colinas, Texas. Amazon may decide to open more health centers if the initial 20 are a success, according to a company statement.
