About our project

The problem we solve: Due to COVID-19, everything that healthcare had not widely adopted to improve and address out of office patient engagement, remote video visits and effective, fast communication between clinicians and with their staffs all of a sudden became an imperative. In order to care for patients and keep health professionals safe as well as generate revenue all these "imperatives" had to be done remotely. Video-only telehealth solutions spun up solutions quickly trying to meet demand. HOWEVER, video only solutions do not address the vast amount of care and follow up required before and after the remote telehealth visit. And with virtual check-ins, new patient information gathering, increased phone calls with decreased staffing and many other strains, video-only solutions were not going to cut it. But the problem is further exacerbated because even with reduced visits, reduced staff, the calls, inquiries, and care requirem

About our solution: IM Your Doc is a SINGLE PLATFORM for both synchronous video and asynchronous messaging for patient and health professional communication. Healthcare staff and providers can in real-time, on mobile devices or in a browser, coordinate patient care amongst each other in teams or one to one messaging, image or document sharing. AND on the same platform, patients can communicate with their medical offices for follow up, in preparation for visit, sending and receiving information like images, labs, insurance information etc. all remotely, HIPAA compliantly and in real-time. In essence, by using IM Your Doc, practices and facilities streamline and compress the "unbillable" events through asynchronous communication making more time for the "billable" events like in-clinic and video consults. The result: increased revenue, decreased phone volume and missed information, and improved patient care quality and satisfaction. All transcripts and telehealth calls can be put into pt chart as well

IM Your Doc is validated in the market. We grew by almost 80% in a 2 month period. We have extremely satisfied customers in most sectors of ambulatory care and long term care all of whom have seen a great benefit both to themselves as healthcare professionals as well as to their patients.  

About Our Company

How We Help Patients

Every patient is a consumer. But healthcare has not treated patients that way. IM Your Doc allows patients to not have to wait on 20 min phone trees to make an appointment, be disrupted from a meeting in the middle of the day only to be told lab results are normal, and to be able to send a quick ask to a nurse for a quick problem instead of going to the ER...and so on. Now, when your practice invites you to connect with them on IM Your Doc, you can ask to get a refill through text message and your practice can attach your lab report and tell you it is normal etc.  It will ding on your phone like a FB message so it is easy to respond to.  A better way to do healthcare remotely when you are not in your doctor's office.

How We Help Physicians

With IM Your Doc, in real-time and on mobile devices or computer browsers, you can have fully reimbursable video visits, engage with the patient through messaging, image and document sharing to prepare for or follow up a visit AND coordinate care amongst your staff and providers even if some of them have to work remotely or are cross covering.

So what IM Your Doc ultimately does on a single platform that is easy to deploy and afforadable,  is compress all the un-billables events around a provider/patient visit so that there is more time for your practices to have for the billable events.

How We Help Hospitals

We service hospitals a little different than we do in an ambulatory care setting. The greatest value hospitals receive from their usage of IM Your Doc is coordination of care on a HIPAA compliant, mobile environment so residents, nurses, dieticians, PTs, OTs, social workers etc, can communicate with each other about patients. The chart is where data is stored and orders are made, but not having to try and pin a doctor down on the phone will save nursing and other staff enormous time and improve patient outcomes due to faster response time.

How we will use the funds raised

We will use our funds in two primary ways.

1. Development Budget (60%) Deepening partnerships and integrations with existing EHR partners as well as cultivating and building new partnerships through integration and functionality dependency. 

2. Marketing (40%)  IM Your Doc is a unique and differentiated product. We must have the bandwidth to further market familiarization as a second wave of Covid19 approaches. 

Thank You

Our customers have seen revenue generation, staff and provider burnout reductions, readmission and acute event reductions and overall patient satisfaction increases.  It has been long coming that healthcare has a mobile-first way to communicate amongst each other and it is paying off. IM Your Doc is ready for growth, we have a robust roadmap and we are looking for customers and investors both.
