MediGuide works closely with medical centers facilitating the delivery of Second Opinion in an orderly and efficient fashion. We carefully study patient needs to assure the selection of the medical center best suited for a particular medical condition, assist in the collection and transfer of medical records in an exact format required by a medical center, and secure reimbursement for the remote Second Opinion consultation. We minimize the hassle and distraction to medical center physicians and administrative personnel, which often occurs, when poorly guided and sometimes panicked patient or relatives try to secure a consultation from a famous center.

MediGuide provides medical centers with a channel for sharing years of experience and the latest advances in medicine with colleagues on the front-lines of healthcare delivery.

Although for many, cost is the most important factor in selecting a center for diagnostics and treatment, MediGuide facilitates patient choice of a medical center only on the merits of available expertise and quality of care, guaranteeing quick and seamless payment to the medical center in exchange for efficient and prompt service.

MediGuide created and continues enhancing a global directory and inventory of provider skills.
