Online Portal to Boost Doctor Collaboration in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Practices

Vemics, Inc., a leading provider of hosted, real-time learning and productivity solutions, announces a partnership with the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Association (HCMA) for the use of Vemic’s iMedicor online portal – a unique patient information-sharing portal for physician collaboration. “It is wonderful that the HCMA has joined iMedicor,” said Tom Dorsett, president of Healthcare Solutions for Vemics. “iMedicor encourages collaborative practices with doctors nationwide and worldwide. We are excited to see all the benefits this portal brings to the medical community and their patients.”

Devoted to educating medical professionals and helping patients, Lisa Salberg, the founder and president of the HCMA, sees iMedicor as having great potential for efficiently communicating information throughout the medical community about Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetic disease that causes a thickening of the heart muscle and the leading cause of sudden cardiac death among children and young adults. She is particularly pleased with the ease in which personal patient information can now seamlessly flow among caregivers. “Because HCM is often misdiagnosed, iMedicor can be an effective tool to help ensure proper diagnoses and treatment.”

iMedicor is a HIPAA compliant, collaborative online portal designed for and by medical professionals to facilitate the secure exchange of medical records, educational content and ideas in real-time. The portal can also help doctors tap corresponding services from other professionals in the medical industry. Some of iMedicor’s features include:

• An online referral and consultation community to create relationships that drive revenue
• An expansive multi-specialty video and text based CME / CEU catalog
• A voice-recognition-driven medical documentation system
• Medical association section that promotes regular interaction between associations and constituents. Healthcare groups section that allows healthcare professionals of like interests to identify one another and collaborate.
• Access to healthcare-specific blogs and forums.
• An events section that gives members and participating organizations the ability to publish up-coming events to gain exposure and increase attendance.
• A practice improvement section that offers courses and information on better practice management
