The VCC ecosystem will be supported with the help of the following eight partners: Doctor Evidence, IMS Health, Karten Design, Medable, Planet Grande, Proteus Digital Health and VSP Global.
When VCC launches, users will have on-demand access to care from USC experts. VCC will first offer access to expertise from the USC Eye Institute and will slowly expand to all physicians, surgeons and researchers at Keck Medicine.
“Our Virtual Care Clinic is not only the democratization of health care allowing anyone access to our medical experts without leaving their home, but it also capitalizes on the promise that digital health is supposed to offer,” said Leslie Saxon, MD. “Because we have worked in collaboration with our VCC partners and our medical experts, this health care model will empower patients, improve quality outcomes with more precision medicine analytics and diagnosis, and enhance the physician-patient relationship by creating a contextualized experience and seamless communication that puts the patient in the driver seat of their own health care experience and outcomes.”
