FetchMD Launches Country's First Two-Sided Platform Connecting Consumers with Healthcare Practitioners
SAN ANTONIO, Texas (PRWEB) July 31, 2018 -- FetchMD, the rapidly expanding on-demand, “house call” service continues to transform healthcare with the launch of its highly-anticipated software platform that connects consumers to licensed healthcare practitioners through the FetchMD mobile app.
“We are incredibly excited about offering consumers healthcare on-demand on their smart phone in much the same way as they can access on-demand retail and transportation services,” said Michael C. Zucker, FACHE, CEO and co-founder of FetchMD. “The rapid adoption rate by our customers in San Antonio and Austin only underscores that we are satisfying the need for a better, more affordable way to access healthcare, and now we made it even easier.”
FetchMD becomes the first company in the country to enable on-demand access to healthcare through a mobile app that matches consumers to a network of independent Advanced Practice Clinicians (physician assistants and nurse practitioners) operating under the supervision of primary care physicians. Consumers can now get same-day in-person care directly to their home or office, often within an hour of their request.
FetchMD is a fast, affordable and convenient consumer friendly alternative to an inefficient healthcare system. Clinicians can diagnose and treat illnesses and injuries a consumer would typically seek from a primary care or urgent care clinic. Thanks to FetchMD, there is no longer a need to drive to a clinic, endure long wait times, or deal with the hassle of confusing claims.
“The new platform combined with an overwhelming demand for the service will allow us to expand quickly and aggressively throughout Texas,” said Zucker. “We have jettisoned healthcare into the on-demand, digital age.”
FetchMD is easily accessed by downloading the FetchMD app on the Apple Store or Google Play.
