10 REASONS FOR MD MEDICUS

MD Medicus co-operates worldwide with service providers in the medical sector because the more specialists are available for the medical and logistical challenges, the more languages they speak the quicker we can help the patients. By combining exceptional competences and resources MD Medicus can give medical advice and offer help in the case of disease or an accident and coorindate the currently most comprehensive range of services around the globe.

In today's world the media and internet provide diverse information from various sources, sometimes even this information is contradictory and potentially insecure, for someone seeking advice. In addition there is some uncertainty about whether the advice and tips are relevant to the given problem at all, or in the end just lead to confusion because of their contradictory nature. This can only be solved with individual advice by a doctor, or specialist, that is tailored to the personal problem.

MD Medicus focuses on competent and always available services. So the MD Medicus Travel service is available 24/7. For example, we organize for our customers the transport of ill or handicapped passengers, and eventually any appropriate companion, by commercial aircraft.

For example the Center for travel medicine (RZ) at the Bernhard-Nocht-Institut for tropical medicine (BNITM) belongs to the MD Medicus group. This ensures that travelers have access to up-to-date and high-quality travel medicine related information. News about potential world-wide health threats and risks can be used, country information and medical background information about every single country in the world is available at any time.

Any advice of the RZ is always neutral and independent of the pharmaceutical industry. Any advice for vaccination is based on objective criteria like necessity, benefit and risks. The extensive knowledge based on the medical and scientific competence of the two strong partners, the BNITM and MD Medicus can be used by policy holders at any time 24/7 before, during and after the trip.

MD Medicus has been developing successful Disease-Management-Programs since1996 that satified all participants. Though these were initially created for private health funds, compulsory health funds joined in 1998, 5 years before similar programs were legally required.

The concept of MD Medicus to control treatments and therapies centralized has been successful for many years now. The clearly defined goals and obligatory binding steps of treatments have not only improved the health of many patients but also significantly lowered the costs involved for treating chronical diseases like diabetes, asthma or COPD.

Successful Disease-Management-Programs, as they have been provided by MD Medicus for years, are characterized by optimization of the therapies, reduced risks and the avoidance of disease related crisis and complications. This can be achieved by tailoring all medical consulting and attendance services to the individual needs of a patient and his/her relatives. Depending on target group and indication savings of up to 20% are quite common.

But MD Medicus does not only implement Disease-Management-Programs we also handle and analyze the massive amount of very complex data that is generated during the process.

Because of our experience in creating and implementing Disease-Management-Programs MD Medicus can offer the successful establishment of new concepts independent of the indication.
