InstaCart dips toe into health care

WASHINGTON – InstaCart is launching InstaCart Health, a new initiative to deliver healthy foods in underserved communities. The initiative includes a comprehensive suite of new products, partnerships and commitments, including Care Carts, designed to give health care providers and caregivers the ability to order groceries and medical supplies on behalf of someone else. “Instacart has become a staple in millions of households, which puts us at the heart of the relationship that people have with food and, therefore, their health,” said Fidji Simo, CEO. “We have a responsibility to use the power of our platform, products and partnerships to expand access to nutritious food and improve health outcomes.” A variety of organizations and services are now using Care Carts, including digital nutrition platform Good Measures in partnership with WellCare of Kentucky; and hospital-at-home solution provider Medically Home.
