In a news release this morning, American Well announced its newest telehealth service, the Exchange.
BOSTON (May 17, 2016) – American Well, a national telehealth technology and services company, today announced its newest enterprise telehealth service, the Exchange, and the first American Well partners to enter it – Cleveland Clinic, Nemours Children’s Health System and LiveHealth® Online. The Exchange allows healthcare organizations, for the first time, to redistribute their services online to new patient populations.
“The Exchange breaks down silos of healthcare delivery and connects every stakeholder in the industry – those who seek care, deliver care, and pay for it – to make great, trusted healthcare more accessible,” said Dr. Roy Schoenberg, CEO, co-founder, American Well.
Added Dr. Schoenberg, “We want to do for healthcare what Amazon did for book stores initially, and online retail, ultimately, which is to establish a national platform on which online healthcare runs. Importantly this platform is not just about connecting consumers to more doctors. Rather, we can connect consumers with the best provider brands across the United States as part of a national, virtual healthcare system.”
