MDLIVE, Microsoft to bring virtual doctor visits through Skype for Business

MDLIVE

MDLIVE is teaming-up with Microsoft to deliver digital health services to healthcare consumers through the Skype for Business platform.

The collaboration comes on the heels of the Skype for Business launch, and will provide users with seamless digital health experience. As part of the deal, Microsoft will offer Surface Pro 3 clinical grade tablets to deliver MDLIVE’s service and launch the new MDLIVE app for the Windows Phone.

“We are excited to work with Microsoft to marry one of the best known and most secure video and voice call platforms with a world class network of physicians ready to deliver exceptional care to patients anywhere,” said Randy Parker, Chief Executive Officer of MDLIVE. “This collaboration makes MDLIVE’s highly secure service even stronger.”

Skype for Business comes integrated into Microsoft Office Suite, offering enterprise-level security, and now with MDLIVE – the highest levels of security and privacy to the digital health experience.

Today, 20 million Americans get some part of their healthcare remotely, and that number will grow as such services are normalized in hospitals, workplaces and households across the nation.
