MyTelemedicine Deploys Internationalization Framework Within its Platform to Support Telemedicine in Multiple Languages Starting With Spanish

Those Who Don’t Speak or Read English Can Enjoy Telemedicine’s Benefits

MyTelemedicine – May 26, 2016 – MyTelemedicine, a national telemedicine and technology service provider, announced that its secure, cloud-based telemedicine platform offers support for telemedicine in multiple languages. Currently, the platform is available in English and Spanish; other languages can follow. Anticipating customer needs, MyTelemedicine used an internationalization process in building its platform, which means it can support additional languages.

“We broadened the scope of our availability to consumers who otherwise would be stuck at the language barrier,” said Jesse Roach, MyTelemedicine’s co-founder and Chief Technical Officer. “We made the possibility of having an international clientele a reality.”

The Affordable Care Act has ushered more patients into the healthcare system, including some among an estimated 30 million non-English speaking patients. They face difficulty navigating a complicated health system — on top of the challenges inherent for those whose first language isn’t English. Besides patients and their families, healthcare providers and support staff also struggle with the language barrier. MyTelemedicine is bridging that critical gap.

Rey Colon, MyTelemedicine’s CEO, said the comprehensive support his company offers to Spanish-speaking patients distinguishes MyTelemedicine from its competitors. “What is being offered in the market today does not provide an authentic Spanish experience from start to finish. The ability to speak to a doctor in Spanish is just part of a patient’s experience.” To provide Hispanic members with a complete and tailored experience, one should have access to an application that allows them to manage their personal health records, initiate consultations by Telephone and Video, manage dependants, and have round-the-clock access to customer care – all in Spanish. “We offer a complete Spanish user experience because that’s what Spanish-speaking patients need and expect,” he said.

MyTelemedicine’s current and prospective partners will benefit from the chance to deliver a proven, cost-effective telemedicine solution to the Spanish-speaking market through MyTelemedicine or their own private-label brand. The number of Spanish speakers in the U.S. is projected to reach 60 million by 2020.

Agora.io Announces Disruptive Cloud Economic Model for Video in Telemedicine

Easy cloud-based integration and video quality optimization over the Internet enable new innovation in Telemedicine

PRNewswire – May 20, 2016 – Agora.io, a communications as a service (CaaS) provider optimizing global quality of experience for real-time video communications, today announced a disruptive cloud economic model for video in Telemedicine at the American Telemedicine Association Annual Conference and Trade Show (ATA2016) in Minneapolis.

Agora Video for Telemedicine is a cloud service that allows application and device developers to quickly integrate premium quality Internet-based multi-party video and voice communications into their mobile and web telemedicine solutions. Agora Video has no up-front licensing, capital expense or long-term commitments and provides free access for developers to SDKs and global communications services. Pricing is a simple pay-as-you-go model with 1 million global video minutes costing only $3,990.

“Agora Video lowers the cost basis for telemedicine by an order of magnitude compared with traditional video licensing models, that are typically user based with significant up-front commitments, complex software deployment requirements and ongoing staffing needs,” said Tony Zhao, founder and CEO of Agora.io. “Our experience at the ATA Conference is that there is a dramatic increase in innovative mobile and global telemedicine solutions that require a much simpler cloud-based video integration and economic model to support industry growth. As telemedicine is increasingly delivered over the public Internet to remote and mobile patients, solution providers will need our unique approach to ensure video quality over challenging network conditions,” he added.

Telemedicine solution providers can simply embed Agora.io SDKs for iOS, Android, Mac, Windows and Web Browsers into their applications. The Agora.io global network, spanning over 70 data centers worldwide, then dynamically routes video traffic around Internet bottlenecks, and optimizes for “mobile last mile” across a broad range of mobile devices to ensure video quality of experience.

“I am impressed to see Agora.io introduce a disruptive video technology approach that will support the next generation of innovation in the telemedicine industry. Their cost effective cloud model for video was the cherry on top for me,” said ATA2016 conference attendee Raj Jhaveri, serial entrepreneur, rated as one of Entrepreneur Magazine’s Top Tech Innovators in 2014.

“Patients increasingly need support from healthcare practitioners in other regions or countries, and Agora.io is providing a cost-effective global cloud video service that makes cross-country medical consultations practical from mobile smartphones and tablets,” said Li ChunPeng, Chairman of global medical agency An Nuo Zhi Mei.

Agora Video for Telemedicine is available today for developers at www.agora.io.
