Healthcare providers can now leverage a suite of digital tools from Instacart that are designed to enhance collaborative care, promote healthy choices and deliver nutritious food to patients and their families, particularly those living in food deserts or needing a medically restricted diet.
“We know that access to nutritious foods can deliver healthier outcomes, but a number of challenges have prevented healthcare providers from effectively adopting food as medicine programs at scale,” said Sarah Mastrorocco, VP and General Manager of Instacart Health in a statement. “With Instacart Health, we have the unique opportunity to partner with providers to expand proven nutrition programs and more deeply integrate food as medicine into standard patient care.”
