Connect2MyDoctor, the comprehensive virtual telehealth platform which has firmly established itself as a leading online healthcare service provider in India, has inked a new pact with the University of Sharjah.
The healthcare start-up co-founded by Mr. Pramod Kutty will look to exchange scientific and medical expertise as well as develop rehabilitation and well-being initiatives as part of the MoU with the University of Sharjah.
After gaining the appropriate clearances, the two institutions have decided to engage on research activities in areas of mutual interest.
The partnership will include data gathering and analysis, as well as cooperative submissions to journals, conferences, and other scientific forums.
According to the agreement, identified patients will be tele-rehabilitated using the C2MD platform and its accompanying modules.
Through video conferences, C2MD enables physiotherapists and orthopaedic surgeons to remotely monitor and measure a patient’s recovery/rehabilitation with the use of its integrated care coach OmniROM.
C2MD’s 3D Augmented Reality module for patient education, cARe, and HomeDoc, the company’s solution for telemedicine care from the patient’s home, will also be important.
“We are thrilled to have signed this historic Memorandum of Understanding with Connect2MyDoctor.” The two institutions will collaborate to extend the scope of health care research while also advancing our educational goals. We are convinced that the collaboration will contribute to the best training programmes for students and the health of patients. Exploring ways to contribute to local health development will be an important component of our relationship,”
Prof. Mohamad Alameddine, Dean of the University of Sharjah’s College of Health Sciences.
C2MD has opened its regional headquarters in Dubai, further strengthening its presence in the UAE.
The plan is to offer a bouquet of online healthcare services including triage care, second opinions, mental health, remote patient management and follow up visits, Home Care, Tele Rehabilitation and more for the region.
“Middle East is critical to our expansion objectives , This partnership with the University of Sharjah is just another important step in that direction. We are certain that by using our technological strengths, we will be able to best serve the region’s healthcare needs. I am confident that the collaboration with the University of Sharjah will be mutually beneficial, given the region’s high standards of healthcare.”
