DrCB CEO / Brown & Brown President Highlight Telemedicine History and Present Day Significance
Orlando, Florida - October 21, 2013 – The economy is sputtering and all of America's healthcare professionals are scratching their heads trying to anticipate the next round of changes associated with the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Dr Connection Benefits (DrCB) has found an answer, and has made the commitment to bring healthcare costs down in a very unique and affordable way through Telemedicine.
Tom Wallace, DrCB CEO, recently presented the eight year history and evolution of Telemedicine from the podium as the keynote speaker of Brown & Brown’s National Benefits Symposium in Orlando, Florida.. He went on to outline, step by step, how employers and individuals save time and money when utilizing telemedicine to its full extent. Mr. Wallace remarks followed that of the President of Brown & Brown Insurance, Mr. Paul Brown; both addressing over 500 Brown & Brown associates from all over the United States.
"Dr. Connection Benefits was founded in 2012 by five partners who immediately recognized the power of today’s technology coupled with the telemedicine concept. Although telemedicine sputtered for roughly 5 years, it is now an integral part of mainstream healthcare, and will stay that for years to come," says CEO Tom Wallace Jr. “Today our clients are enjoying or entertaining all types of programs; from membership embeds, health plan embeds, retail programs, employer paid programs to telemarketing direct to consumer programs.” “DrCB has moved quickly to become the experts, customizing program structure and pricing solutions. This is an amazing option for companies that want top quality and affordability for employees or members" said one DrCB client requesting anonymity. "It just makes sense to use Telemedicine technology to save our company, and our people time and money while staying healthy. But we never knew there was an option out there like this until DrCB came along.
