Our Why

I've been both the patient needing answers and the physician providing them.
Peace of mind doesn't change outcomes—better healthcare decisions do. We deliver what thirty years of second opinions haven't: academic expertise at the speed the digital world requires.

We built the bridge.
The expertise exists. The patients need it. Technology removes the barriers.

FAQs

Quick answers for buyers and stakeholders.

How do we demonstrate ROI (return on Investment)?

Combining true certified expert recommendations with cost of avoided unnecessary procedures and usage.

How does diagnosis-driven matching work?

We route cases to the academic centers with the deepest expertise for the specific diagnosis and sub-specialty rather than first available routing.

What is usage-based pricing?

Pay for cases delivered, not assumed utilization rate per population covered.

What does “academic certified” mean?

The opinion is issued under the academic medical centers’ authority not just a physician note.
