$WAG,...Here come the online doctors

A new app from Walgreens (NYSE:WAG) gives customers in California and Michigan the option to consult with a board-certified doctor online.

The company, which is partnering with MDLive on the project, plans to roll out the initiative in more states next year.

Doctors can write prescriptions based on the online consults which are expected to last 10 to 15 minutes.

Walgreens introduced a pharmacy chat option off its app earlier this year.
