| | AUGUST - 202019UTLOOKHealthcare Tech schedule an in-person appointment with a physician, they can reach out to SAMI-Aid and find a local doctor. Patients can view the price of a visit with that doctor, and SAMI-Aid will make the connection. The company offers a patient the ability to connect to a doctor without having to go through an insurance company or being limited by what an insurance company will allow. SAMI-Aid is trying to make access to quality healthcare better, by removing the insurance provider from the equation and ensuring that they are only called in instances of critical or chronic conditions.SAMI-Aid has also been working with companies that employ 1099 and other self-employed workers/independent contractors/part-time workers. Many of those workers don't typically have insurance provided through their employer. SAMI-Aid works with those employers to provide supplemental health care services, via their telemedicine platform. This gives such organizations the ability to provide a good quality healthcare service for part-time and 1099 workers, without having to invest on a fully-backed insurance program. "We want to work with them on an ongoing basis to help provide care for those members of their workforce that would normally be left out," adds Farhangui. In essence, SAMI-Aid would partner with a company and would charge them a per employee per month rate. Each employee signed up to the program receives unlimited access to SAMI-Aid's telemedicine platform. They can then choose to speak to a primary care physician, a pediatrician, psychiatrist, therapist, or even a dermatologist. SAMI-Aid's model is also a boon for businesses and universities because of the flexibility that it affords both employees and students. SAMI-Aid wants to give students a healthcare solution that they can rely on at any time, even during school holidays, when students are off-campus. At a small fee, students will be able to use SAMI-Aid outside their campus and during their breaks, at times when they can't use their resources on campus. Students can speak to a doctor, nurse, or mental health care professional anytime that they want. SAMI-Aid also offers programs to treat, track, and trace the coronavirus to limit virus exposure at campuses and businesses.SAMI-Aid is potentially the future of contemporary healthcare, where the whole system works as a sort of physician cooperative. Here, doctors can add value to their practice by offering their services on the SAMI-Aid platform. This is beneficial to both the patients (who need access to quality healthcare) and the physicians (who can make the most of their time and abilities and be remunerated for the same). And with SAMI-Aid, there are no overhead costs or billing issues, and they don't have to deal with any insurance. The process is very straightforward, and it is here now. Healthcare can truly be democratized, regardless of who you are. Finally, you can care for your own health, on your own terms.
