PlushCare

PlushCare is a US-based telehealth service, owned by Accolade since 2021, that connects patients with board-certified primary-care physicians trained at top-50 medical schools. The product line covers virtual primary care, urgent-care visits for 6,800+ common conditions, prescription refills, mental-health therapy and psychiatry, online weight-management programs (including GLP-1 medications such as Wegovy and Zepbound), and a men's and women's health track that covers hormone therapy, birth control, and sexual-health prescriptions. Visits run same-day on weekdays and weekends through the web portal or iOS and Android apps. Insurance is accepted from major carriers (Aetna, Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, United, and others), and self-pay visits run roughly USD 129 for a first appointment plus a USD 16.99 monthly membership.

The typical buyer is a US resident without easy access to an in-person primary-care doctor, someone who needs a quick prescription refill, or a member looking for cash-pay telemedicine for weight loss, ED, or mental-health care. Content sites in the health, weight-loss, GLP-1, and mental-wellness verticals convert well here because PlushCare's funnel routes readers from a specific symptom or medication query into a same-day appointment and a monthly membership. Comparison posts against Hims, Hers, Ro, Sesame, and Teladoc are the standard affiliate angle, and PlushCare's insurance acceptance is a differentiator that cash-pay-only competitors cannot match.

PlushCare's affiliate program is managed on the Katalys network (formerly Skimlinks/CJU's health vertical), not CJ Affiliate or Impact directly. Publishers apply at katalys.com/brands/plushcare-affiliate-program, fill in an application covering site, audience, and promotion plan, and get approved within a few business days. Approved affiliates receive tracking links, creative assets, and an account manager who can unlock VIP payout tiers for higher-quality traffic.

The default payout is USD 60 CPA per new qualified customer, rising to around USD 100 for VIP publishers who drive volume or audience fit. The cookie window is 30 days from click to signup. Commissions are validated against PlushCare's definition of a qualified account (first paid visit or first paid membership) and locked after a return-window review, then released on Katalys's monthly net-30 cycle via PayPal, direct deposit, or wire transfer, subject to a USD 50 minimum. Accepted traffic types include content, social, sponsored, and coupon; prohibited channels include spam, trademark bidding on 'PlushCare,' unauthorized endorsements, and incentivized traffic. Self-referrals and refunded visits are excluded.
