MIAMI, Sept. 28, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- North America is currently the largest telemedicine market globally, accounting for approximately 40 percent of the global market size. However, the growth of telemedicine is increasing around the world and in developing countries because of increasing population, increasing chronic diseases, rural boundaries, and the rapid growth of telecommunications. TreatMD was developed to be country agnostic featuring over 30 languages and custom international features such as custom procedure coding and flexible payment solutions. Out of the box, TreatMD allows any provider, practice, hospital, facility, or healthcare organization to start providing telemedicine services in any country. Currently in 22 countries and growing, TreatMD continues to expand its telemedicine platform globally.

But TreatMD has another goal in mind as they expand their telemedicine platform internationally. The company has a long term goal of building the TreatMD infrastructure to collaborate medicine and treatment on a global scale. Patients, as well as providers in one country can search and communicate with providers or facilities in another country to seek consultation, second opinion, or even learn about emerging treatments.

"Healthcare and treatment in general has the opportunity to redefine itself with telemedicine or what we reference as On-Demand Healthcare. Why can't a patient in Florida suffering from an illness or disease like Cancer search and communicate with a doctor in Germany, or any country for new treatments or even second opinions. We are missing the collaboration of medicine and treatment on a global scale. This is one of our long term goals and we even feel that this type of collaboration can lead to cures and treatments if shared around the world," said Bryan Lenett, co-founder of TreatMD.

TreatMD claims it is the only telemedicine company expanding internationally and offering a flexible fee for service models. International providers have the option of signing up for free, setting their price points & consultation types, and start conducting telemedicine with patients in their region or around the world. The company believes this business model now makes it feasible to give international providers the tools to utilize telemedicine in their regions and abroad.

International providers and healthcare organizations also have the option of creating their own White Label system to provide telemedicine to their existing patients and on their website as seen in this example: https://doctors.sample-business.com
