1,100 people sign up for Catapult’s telehealth checkup on launch day, company reports

Catapult Health, a Texas-based provider of preventive care, announced a new program for employers this week that offers home-based checkups via telehealth to employees and family members.

VirtualCheckup, says the vendor, combines telehealth, clinical diagnostics, and COVID-19 and depression screenings “to address the health concerns of today.”

“Preventive care is key, especially as many in our team have recently experienced transitions in their lives, and more people are remote and caring for family members,” said Ryan Murry, senior director of benefits for Essilor of America, which offers the program to employees.
