SweetMD.com, and numerous other leading telemedicine technology
partners as a proprietary owned property of 800 Commerce. MediSwipe

legislative changes in multiple states, as well as provide
financing options for patients seeking elective surgeries through
our extensive shared physician network between the two companies

The American Medical Association Council on Medical Service
recently issued a report emphasizing the importance and value of
telemedicine services and encourages reimbursement by private
insurers for similar doctor on-call telemedicine services, which
are currently covered under Medicaid in nearly half the country. As
more employers and private insurers adopt similar policies, the
market for this type of telemedicine services in the U.S. is
expected to generate $3.6 billion in annual revenue over the next
five years, according to a study by research firm Pike &
Fischer.
