Randy Parker of MDLive joined the TPN CES Live broadcast. MDLive is a virtual health system – they have doctors, nurses and other medical personnel who can make a virtual housecall. They can even prescribe certain medications over video chat.
MDLive is HIPPA compliant. The physicians can be anywhere, however MDLive will send you to a location-certified physician to diagnose and prescribe. You can connect to doctors or therapists online.
Using mobile apps, they can get your vitals without having to touch you. This physician can become a liason to when you actually do need to go to a doctor. They cover over 3 million people and 2,000 physicians.
Everything is also recorded and encrypted. Therefore, if there is an issue they can pull up the videos. MDLive also is full malpractice covered.
For $49.95, you can connect to a specialist to talk. To find out more, check out MDLive.com
