Thomas Meehan announced on Monday morning that the leading Florida provider of supplemental telemedicine healthcare was “prepared to decrease overall healthcare expenses through the application of telemedicine.”
Thomas Meehan explained that there is a reported 46 million people in the United States without healthcare insurance, beyond the minimum level of emergency room care provided by a 1968 federal law. Meehan explained the law actually causes increases in healthcare expenses across the board, with participating hospitals forcing the expense of free care into other treatment areas.
His contention was that there needs to be a middle ground, or area of compromise, by which the non-emergency medical situations could be treated outside the confines of traditional medical care. MD247 is prepared to offer a viable option, first to residents of the State of Florida, through the use and application of unique medical services at a distance using telecommunications technology. The medical process is called “telemedicine,” and Florida residents are encouraged to learn more by visiting the new and easily navigable MD247 website at http://www.md247.com.
Meehan invites residents of the Tampa Bay area to contact MD247, and request an in-person meeting to discuss both the positive aspects and the negative aspects associated with telemedicine. The discussion is set to include information regarding potential overall decreases to the expenses incurred by the insured, potential applications for telemedicine and how it is possible to become an advocate for healthcare change.
