Medivic is a telemedicine app that seamlessly brings doctors and patients together.
MediVic Hub, a South African based company established to focus in providing technology solutions to the challenges encountered by the health sector, has launched its first app, the MediVic app available for both Android and iOS devices. A one-of-a-kind app in South Africa and created in the wake of the global pandemic, the MediVic app bridges the geographical gap between medical specialists and patients all through a click of a button.
“The global pandemic has altered how we do many things, one of these being how we interact with each other. When it comes to the client-based service industry, the need to not only transform operations to meet safety regulations but also rethink the concept behind customer satisfaction has come under the spotlight. At MediVic we have recognised the need for ground-breaking innovation in light of this and this has subsequently led to the launch of our first medical mobile application,” said Desmond Mahamu, MediVic Hub Chief Executive Officer.
The app facilitates meaningful conversations thanks to its secure live chat and video consultation capabilities between patients and doctors. Incorporated as part of it is an e-consultation function that enables document sharing, this includes the automatic sending of prescriptions. Patients will also be able to easily choose their desired pharmacy as well as decide between collection or delivery options using the same e-consultation functionality.
Due to the sensitive data provided on the MediVic app, you can rest assured that data privacy and security is of the highest concern and you can rest assured that all your data is secured by the highest encryption standards.
“We created the app with a phased approach in mind, the current version completes phase one with phase two set to come at a later stage. The next phase will consist of more features and functionalities including medical aid payments, pharmacy integration, a self-examination device, web-based desktop support, digital medical scripts and much more. We’re proud to have gotten to this stage and offer a solution that provides convenience to both health practitioners and patients,” added Mahamu.
