Costco is offering an online health checkup for under $30 thanks to a partnership with direct-to-consumer healthcare marketplace Sesame.
Costco members can book visits via their membership across the country, according to a CNN report.
The news comes just less than a year after Amazon debuted its Amazon Clinic healthcare service.
Sesame does not accept insurance, and the virtual primary care visit is listed at $29, with healthcare visits, including lab work and follow-up, for $72. Mental health appointments cost $79.
"Quality, great value, and low price are what the Costco brand is known for," David Goldhill, Sesame's co-founder and CEO, said in a statement, according to CNN. "When it comes to health care, Sesame also delivers high quality and great value — and a low price that will be appreciated by Costco Members when it comes to their own care."
