Google Health adds telehealth services to the mix
SAN FRANCISCO – Google Health is introducing telehealth services to its platform through a partnership with Boca Raton, Fla.-based MDLiveCare.
The partnership, which was announced Tuesday at the Health2.0 conference in San Francisco, will allow Google Health users with an MDLiveCare HIPAA access to secure video, phone or email telehealth consultations with a board-certified physician or mental health therapist, allowing them to share their medical records with a physician before the appointment and get records after the appointment.
“Patients remember less than 25 percent of what they’re told when they consult with a doctor,” said Bob Smoley, the CEO of MDLiveCare. “By directly synchronizing the information that’s shared during telehealth consultations with electronic patient health records, we’re able to provide patients with a convenient solution to review their physician or therapist encounters, time and time again, which significantly increases patient awareness and treatment compliance. This integration allows us to further empower patients with better access to all of their health information and to provide a service unprecedented in medicine today.”

New Web site aims to increase price transparency
SEATTLE – PriceDoc.com, a free Web site looking to provide healthcare consumers with price transparency, has launched its pilot program nationwide.
The Seattle-based Web site was originally launched in April with the goal of providing uninsured or underinsured consumers as well as those seeking elective procedures with insight regarding potential healthcare costs from qualified providers.
“Based on our recent experiences, there is a huge demand for what PriceDoc.com brings to consumers and healthcare providers,” said Patrick Bradley, the company’s president and chief operating officer. “Clearly, the idea of transparent medical pricing resonates with both groups.”
