Are you a forward thinking physician interested in expanding your practice or having a more flexible schedule? Perhaps you’re retired or semi-retired. Or you’re a new doctor wanting to add to your practice. Full-time or part-time hours are available. It’s your choice. Secure Telemedicine can provide you with many as many options as you can imagine. Think of it as solution-based medicine. Secure Telemedicine gives you more freedom. Freedom to effortlessly expand your practice and your income. Freedom from all the distractions of administrative tasks. Freedom to spend more time with patients, and the freedom to be truly well-compensated for your work. And all the while, free from HMOs.

Secure Telemedicine’s pioneering programs and services provide patients with much needed access to healthcare from the comfort of their home or work. Physicians can work part-time or full, all the while maintaining their own practice. It is completely scalable: you decide your involvement based on your schedule, desired case load and desired compensation. There are no catches, no lock-in provisions—just the freedom to grow and do what you do best: practice medicine. As a Secure Telemedicine physician, you will, in many cases, earn more than in a traditional practice.

Secure Telemedicine connects patients seeking complementary methods of treatment from simple ask-a-doctor consultations by phone — to full telemedicine consults with e-health solutions for preventative, maintenance, and long-term and/or chronic conditions.

Secure Telemedicine has identified three key factors in selecting successful candidates for our program.

• First, we affiliate with reputable board-certified physicians whose backgrounds, philosophies and schedules make a great fit.
• Second, we look for doctors and medical professionals who are forward-thinkers and who want to be a part of the future of  Telemedicine.
• Third, we want physicians who want to make a difference to those in need, but who also want to be compensated accordingly, on a weekly basis for the previous week’s consultations. No more waiting for slow or non-responsive insurance reimbursements!

Below are the 2 methods Secure Telemedicine and Consult-a-Dr follows in integrating telemedicine into a doctor's practice:

1. Partnership Specialist
   A Partnership Specialist from Secure Telemedicine will consult with you over the phone about the possibility of a fit with our organization. Our Partnership Specialist can provide information concerning all aspects of joining the Telemedicine Physicians Network (TPN).
2. Management Agreement
   This agreement spells out the details of your affiliation with Secure Telemedicine including all legal and compensation issues. We continuously interact with our physicians to guarantee quality assurance and provide ongoing support including weekly and monthly reports, and payout for previous weeks’ consultations.

In these days of managed care and declining reimbursement, many physicians are looking for ways to improve their practice, boost their profit margins, and make their practice more marketable. Many physicians are still unaware that tools they are currently using can be used to maximize not only their current practice but also help them develop new ways of treating more patients from a larger platform. In addition, as technology advances, there are many improvements that can be made to a practice by knowing how to integrate these services. Secure Telemedicine can help physicians generate a positive cash flow and reduce overhead in a short period of time.

American Association of
Telemedicine Physicians (AATP)

What is AATP?

You will automatically have membership in the American Association of Telemedicine Physicians (AATP) which is an industry group formed to establish effective methods of managing health in response to the rise in the treatment of chronic conditions and to address a rapidly aging population. Consult-a-Dr and its parent company, Secure Telemedicine have created an association so that industries can work together to provide a literal network of products and services available via the Internet and by simple phone connectivity in order to provide millions of people with the tools they need to better manage their health and the health of their families.

AATP is focused on three main categories:

1. chronic disease management
2. healthcare monitoring for an aging population and
3. proactive health and fitness

By creating a network of easy-access health and medical devices, people with heart disease, diabetes or other chronic diseases will be able to provide blood pressure and weight levels and other information to their doctors without actually having to set up an in-person office visit. Imagine the savings in terms of time and effort that used to be involved in setting appointments having, not to mention how much better it is for everyone to avoid having to share crowded waiting rooms during an especially virulent flu season.
