The global medical tourism marketplace is providing access to top medical experts via PlacidWay’s Expert Corner to help patients from anywhere, anytime during the pandemic COVID-19 crisis.

Global medical tourism industry leader PlacidWay is launching PlacidExpert, a remote-based Second Opinion and Online Consultation service. The Expert Corner is aimed to benefit patients seeking medical advice during the coronavirus outbreak when they are unable to travel for required care. The medical centers can help patients who are unable to avail expert medical advice locally by providing much needed online consultation services.

This smart innovative solution by PlacidWay comes at a crucial juncture when medical travel is temporarily curtailed due to the widespread global pandemic of COVID-19. With the restrictions on international travel and the fear of the virus spread, people are canceling their bookings and plans for treatment abroad. In such a challenging situation, PlacidExpert can be used as an innovative strategy to connect with patients and help them make an informed decision about their health, states Mr. Pramod Goel, the Founder and CEO of PlacidWay.

He adds, “Using this service, medical experts will have the power to help patients from anywhere, anytime, which will lead to increased patient health outcomes and improve patient engagement. This can help patients correctly diagnose their local doctors’ advice while eliminating the need to travel for the second opinion.

The patients can use this online consultation/second opinion program to reduce overall cost as well as lost time away from work. The major advantage would be availing expert online consultation by top specialists without the expense and time of travel. Such real-time direct online consultation and fast second opinion will help them understand ongoing treatment better and explore other possible alternative treatment options. 

The healthcare delivery model is going through a transformation where patients demand a controlled model of care. PlacidExpert can add excellent value and lead the transition with the visionary global online consultation service.
