Miami Healthcare Technology Start-Up Giving Free Remote Medical Consultations to Victims of Hurricane Harvey in Houston

MIAMI, Aug. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In response to the devastation and widespread flooding throughout the Greater Houston Area from Hurricane Harvey, Miami healthcare technology start-up EpicMD, is actively giving free medical consultations, provided remotely by U.S. Board Certified primary care physicians and specialists. Medical consultations can be conducted by phone, video, email or text to all Houston relief victims through registered charitable organizations associated with this effort.

When Hurricane Harvey made landfall, and as a major national disaster was being declared in Texas, the EpicMD Share-the-Care program became proactively engaged in providing free medical care to those in need via the company's mobile healthcare platform. "While the EpicMD Share-the-Care program has been effectively providing free medical care to those in need for over a year, the situation in Houston has become uniquely acute," said Matt Wanderer, CEO and Founder of Epic Health, the parent company of EpicMD and Share-the-Care.
