Uber drivers and delivery partners will soon be able to avail free doctor consultations and medical assistance at a nominal cost for themselves and up to five family members. This comes after Uber partnered with DocsApp to avail free doctor consultations, subsidised prescription, medicines and lab tests across Uber rides and Uber Eats platforms.

"Uber India and DocsApp will provide easily accessible healthcare facilities to the driver and delivery partners on the Uber platform. Through this partnership, driver-partners can get access to free unlimited consultation from doctors on call, along with up to 20% discount on medicines and up to 40% discount on lab tests anywhere in India," a Uber spokesperson said.
