iMedicor announced today the launch of The National Healthcare Communications Network. The Network will allow the transport of HIPAA-compliant secure messaging with attachments (medical records, files and images), a social portal that encourages peer collaboration and expansion of inbound and outbound referrals, and access to the largest collection of certified Continuing Medical Education programs, staff and skill level development programs and product/device-specific educational resources.
The initial marketing of this service will begin immediately to select groups within the total targeted base of over 500,000 physicians and their practices, all of whom are registered users of iMedicor's network partners. The Network will serve as a secure, Internet-based upgrade to the communications between the various user bases of those partners. Regular subscription licensing is priced at $24.95 per month per practice for unlimited use of the Network. Within a physician practice, any number of non-licensed staff members can be included under the original physician's subscription at no additional cost.
"The National Healthcare Communications Network will address several areas within the 'Meaningful Use' regulations coming out of Washington, especially in the areas of interoperability, security and access to patient information by qualified sources," said Fred Zolla, CEO of iMedicor. "Initial market research has demonstrated to our partners and to us, internally, that an upgrade to the current state of healthcare communications is not only needed, but also highly desirable throughout the medical community. We believe the widespread adoption of The National Healthcare Communication Network by physicians will provide a major step forward in creating interoperable HIPAA-compliant communications throughout the healthcare community."
iMedicor expects a 20 percent early adoption rate over the next several months with consistent growth on a month-to-month basis as the transition from a paper to a digital medical record system becomes a reality.
