The announcement was made today by Bernard Stolar, GetFugu's CEO, and Dr. M. Kharazmir, CEO of Health Matrix.
Health Matrix has engaged GetFugu to deploy its innovative suite of health care solutions through GetFugu's unique interactive platform. Health Matrix provides solutions to reduce and optimize overall health care cost, while targeting physicians, who are among the earliest adopters of smart phones and PDAs, medical providers, employers, and consumers seeking the latest information on drugs and medical services. "After evaluating many systems for our complex needs, we are happy to finally structure a deal with GetFugu, the only turnkey technology that is appropriate for the medial services we provide."
Physicians can click on or say a product name to immediately access information about a drug, request samples, see interactions with other drugs and go immediately to a manufacturer's website. Consumers can use GetFugu's apps to immediately locate a pharmacy, obtain discount coupons, access a network of 500,000 medical providers at discounted rates or locate a doctor specializing in any condition. With some 950,000 healthcare providers in a revenue sharing arrangement with GetFugu, the Company is projecting $20M revenue in year three, with only a 3% adoption rate.
