On the heels of the pandemic era and the greater use of virtual appointments, SpartanNash Co. is teaming up with Land O’ Lakes, Fla.-based Bonum Health to offer telemedicine services. Pharmacy customers at SpartanNash banners can use Bonum Health’s mobile app and website to connect with healthcare providers and receive fast, reliable medical advice for everyday care and non-emergency conditions.

“The SpartanNash partnership with Bonum Health promotes equitable access to U.S. Board-Certified providers and allows any guest who may be uninsured, under-insured or simply looking for cost savings with immediate, high-quality care,” explained Tony Sarsam, president and CEO of SpartanNash.
