TimelyCare & CollegeBuys
Learn more about how TimelyCare and CollegeBuys, powered by the Foundation for California Community Colleges, support efforts to improve student physical and mental health through telehealth.


What is CollegeBuys?
CollegeBuys, powered by the Foundation for California Community Colleges, offers competitive pricing on a wide range of products and services for higher education, including telehealth through TimelyCare.
Why did TimelyCare form an alliance with CollegeBuys?
CollegeBuys and TimelyCare have formed an alliance to provide California college students access to no-cost 24/7/365, on-demand medical and mental health services. Through the CollegeBuys system-wide agreement, all State of California Higher Education participating agencies can choose from three different programs (Gold, Silver or Bronze) to meet the unique needs of each school’s enrolled student population.
The programs offer medical, scheduled counseling, emotional support, psychiatry and health coaching.
What is the benefit for California schools partnering with TimelyCare for telehealth services?
TimelyCare serves as an extension of your school’s existing health and counseling center by providing care to students at any time, on any device and from any location that is convenient and comfortable for the student. TimelyCare partners with each school to ensure the messaging and marketing of current and future (discounted) pricing is simple for institutions to appropriately budget for and understand. During onboarding, TimelyCare leverages branded marketing assets to ensure that students, faculty and staff are aware of the program, and provide peace of mind for students and parents.
As schools or districts partner with TimelyCare and the aggregate student population grows, the entire system reaps the reward of ongoing discounts to the TimelyCare telehealth program.
