What is Docademic?
Docademic is a free telemedicine service, with which millions of people in 20 countries of the world (mainly Latin America) receive quality basic medical care without leaving home. The service has been working since 2016. The work of the service is very simple - through the phone and video calls, a person can quickly get a consultation of specialists, make an appointment and then undergo a full course of treatment. Subsequently, the Docademic platform will combine its telemedicine service (Docademic App) and social network for doctors (Docademic for Doctors) to provide high-quality services such as real-time geographic data reporting, automated treatment recommendations that will be provided through AI, as well as doctors working with the platform and diagnostics for doctors in institutions or private practice, mass access to patient groups for preventive campaigns.
Why do we need an MTC token?
The Docademic platform tokens are called MTC (Medical Token Currency). Tokens operate on the basis of the Ethereum blockchain, the ERC20 standard. Patients will be able to consult doctors and pay for their treatment services by using a token. Everything will happen through smart contracts. The whole history of the disease and the medical record will be recorded in the blockchain. This approach will improve both the quality of medical care and its speed. The Docademic platform is planning to become one of the main providers of medical services in the market. According to the founders' plans, the use of a free telemedicine service will help them reach out to the masses and use blockchain technology in the health field. They are already negotiating with health agencies, governments and partners to make MTC the preferred token for their own upcoming and existing health services as they move to decentralized platforms.
Instead of conclusion:
The first thing that catches my eye is that the company already has a product for a couple of years and people use it in more than 20 countries of the world. The use of a blockchain will help them to enter the global market - and it will be new users, increase the value of the project, increase the quality of service.
The second is the product itself. Video communication with a doctor from anywhere in the world, and even for free. Is it even possible? The founders of the project not only say "yes", but also confirm the words with actions. I believe that projects of this type will change our world.
Docademic still has a lot to grow and develop, which means that we have an excellent opportunity to earn now by investing, since we are at the start. I would also like to note the interest of John McAfee in this project. His tweets over the past couple of days have created a good buzz around the project, which, I think, will have a beneficial effect on the recognition and development of the project.
