HMSA Online Initiative: Nation's First Print E-mail

HMSA says it's about to become the first health plan in the nation to offer online health care to consumers. HMSA has partnered up with Microsoft and American Well to launch a new service that will allow consumers a chance to talk to physicians via the Internet. The system will be available 24 hours a day.

HMSA officials say the service will be another resource for which they can deliver care.

"We anticipate that 24 hours a day that there will be physicians who want to take advantage, there are people, there are physicians available in the evening, there are physicians in many different settings."

The new service is scheduled to launch in early 2009. No word yet on how much the service will cost.
