Vytal, a healthcare technology company, today announced a national collaboration with GenieMD, a global provider of telemedicine solutions, for patients seeking a convenient way to engage with healthcare providers and order medication online. The collaboration integrates Vytal’s prescription management platform, VytalOS, with GenieMD’s robust virtual care platform, iVisit, to provide patients access to prescription and over-the-counter medications, medical devices, diagnostics, and more.
Patients seeking over-the-counter medications, medical devices, or prescription medication can browse and make purchases via VytalOS and then have their order delivered to their front door. Vytal is able to connect patients with a doctor via GenieMD or transfer prescriptions from a patient’s established doctor, which are then automatically refilled and continuously delivered to patients with little effort on their end.
This partnership comes as the nation experiences an unprecedented increase in virtual doctors appointments, with telehealth being used 38 times more often than before the pandemic and 40% of consumers expecting to continue to use virtual health options moving forward. GenieMD and Vytal hope to continue to serve patients who are looking for a convenient way to receive healthcare while remaining in the comfort of their own homes.
“Vytal’s mission is closely aligned with our own mission to expedite the delivery of pharmaceuticals to the patients who need them within a legally compliant framework,” said Dr. Soheil Saadat, CEO of GenieMD. “Our company’s global telehealth platform, along with our direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical marketing solution, contribute to the tremendous synergy between GenieMD and Vytal that will ultimately enhance patients’ health and well-being.”
