FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Jan. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- USARAD Holdings Inc., the leading U.S. Joint Commission accredited teleradiology and telemedicine company welcomes Kevin Harrington to its Board of Advisors. Kevin is an American entrepreneur and business executive who has appeared on the television series Shark Tank. Kevin is the mastermind and inventor of the "Infomercial" and has worked with thousands of companies from start-ups to over one-billion-dollar success stories. He found his own success in 1985 when he created his first infomercials after identifying an opportunity to fill late night and early morning dead airtime on cable networks. Since then, as an early investor in numerous products, Harrington's work behind the scenes of business ventures has produced more than $5 billion in global sales.
As a seasoned, serial entrepreneur, Kevin Harrington and his team have chosen to partner with SecondOpinions.com due to its ability to reach and help millions of people worldwide. SecondOpinions.com is the leading medical second opinion service that utilizes advanced technology to best serve its patients amidst rapid changes in healthcare. Leveraging Artificial Intelligence (A.I.), SecondOpinions.com is transforming the healthcare industry by ensuring quick, reliable, and accurate medical diagnoses, especially in medical specialties with notoriously high rates of error, such as diagnostic imaging (radiology), oncology (cancer) and orthopedic surgery. Misdiagnosis and medical errors are the 3rd leading cause of death in the U.S. and globally. 400,000 Americans die from incorrect diagnoses each year. Approximately half of surgeries are considered unnecessary with the annual costs of over $120 billion. Additionally, almost 90% of initial diagnoses are changed or revised.
SecondOpinions.com was founded approximately 7 years ago by Michael Yuz, MD MBA, in response to a need he saw in the market: an unacceptable rate of medical errors. Since then the international company has provided its services to patients in over 120 countries, and SecondOpinions.com has proven to be a trusted brand that works with top American Board-Certified medical specialists.
Dr. Yuz has noted, "Due to the complexity of medicine and high rate of medical errors, it is essential for every patient globally has affordable second opinion option available to them at their fingertips. It could be a matter of life or death." He actively urges everyone to educate themselves on the importance of obtaining a second opinion.
Kevin Harrington has added, "My team and I are thrilled to partner with SecondOpinions.com and their vast network of top U.S. board-certified physicians. Without any doubt their innovative offering will make a significant positive impact on the healthcare of people everywhere."
