Amazon is folding its Amazon Clinic brand telehealth business into its One Medical doctor-staffed clinic and virtual care business to simplify its primary care offerings for customers and patients.

In an interview earlier this year, Amazon executives said Amazon One Medical has added more than 15 new offices and will be expanding into two additional U.S. markets by the end of this year. Amazon One Medical, which has nearly 240 primary care offices in more than 20 U.S. markets, is expanding in existing markets in addition to adding new locations later this year in Milwaukee and Hackensack, New Jersey.

While Amazon is expanding and rebranding its primary care and virtual care offerings, Walmart in April disclosed plans to close its Walmart Health centers and virtual care business, saying it doesn’t see a sustainable business model in primary care.
