One Medical provides both in-person and online resources. The discount brings the membership to $99 while a prime subscription costs $139 per year.

Amazon has advised existing Prime members who also subscribe to One Medical to complete an online form in order to receive a reimbursement for the previously paid membership fee.

During the initial few months following the acquisition of the company, Amazon extended a $55 discount on One Medical membership to Prime members.
