LOS ANGELES, CA–(Marketwire – Jan 3, 2013) – MMRGlobal, Inc. (
The professional telehealth service provides patients with a private and secure environment for interacting remotely with their medical practitioners. It employs a video conferencing system utilizing life-size images and eye contact for the most realistic telepresence experience possible. Using the system, documents from a MyMedicalRecords PHR can be shared with providers in real-time through collaborative displays. At CES, MMR will be part of an Alcatel-Lucent idea showcase aimed at stimulating application innovation for consumers by connecting devices like smartphones and tablets to Personal Health Records. MyMedicalRecords can also receive protected personal health information into a telemedicine inbox which is already included inside of every MyMedicalRecords.com PHR.
The ng Connect Program, founded by Alcatel-Lucent, is a multi-industry “ecosystem” dedicated to the creation of the next-generation user experience for connected consumers. Among the most recent members to join the ng Connect ecosystem is Sprint, the first North America service provider to become part of the program. The ng Connect program is comprised of more than 190 member companies that include MMRGlobal, Samsung, Intel, Sprint, Kyocera, HP, Idealab, IMAX, Telecom Italia, and others (http://www.ngconnect.org/members/collaborating-members.htm).
MyMedicalRecords’ untethered services can connect to virtually any product or service that creates patient information related to health and wellness. Through ng Connect, MMR is identifying tomorrow’s opportunities to combine its patented health information technologies with other member products and services.
