The future of medicine
Spent the day in Boston with Hello Health. It's a new online based healthcare platform to allow physicians to practice medicine with high access using a Facebook-like connection between doctors and patients. They want to embrace the integrative medicine movement, so they are spending the day with two other docs and myself to better understand how to build a platform for health-promoting care.
This evening was dinner with the CEO and their marketing team. So great to be in a room with folks dedicated to marrying technology and healthcare. Their product allows doctors and patients to visit via email, chat online or video conference. It will also allow patients to be more involved in their care with access to their health record and the ability to keep their chart up to date and schedule themselves online.
Can't wait to continue the relationship and move integrative medicine into this space. It really is the perfect marriage. Patients need to take control of their health and their healthcare experience. Hello Health is creating the platform to allow this.
