Co-Founder, Avi Kerendian (GGHTx) Partners with Dr. Arash Hakhamian, Dentulu to Help Progress Telehealth and Global Health Reform amidst Coronavirus Pandemic
Born from the creative minds of Medical Director, Dr. Arash Hakhamian at Dentulu and, Co-Founder, Program-Director Avi Kerendian of GGHTx, the telehealth community is excited by the prospect of a new partnership that will bring underserved communities much healthcare reform. GGHTx is an active public health nonprofit organization that aims at improving healthcare of less privileged communities, through free medical and dental mission trips funded by volunteers themselves.
As GGHTx has an end goal of providing self-sufficiency to said communities, GGHTx and Dentulu will join forces in the next few months to help create a positive impact on communities in Latin America and Uganda through free telehealth access for all. They will achieve their goal by helping these communities’ access health and dental care, at the highest medical and legal standards, through the proprietary, free telehealth platform access that will be available for all, along with their free mission trip visits with medical and dental volunteers.
The importance of telepath is especially useful at this time given the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Telehealth is the use of electronic information and communication technologies, such as mobile phones and computers to provide access to health care services from remote locations that will also provide for patients’ healthcare needs. These are digital ways for patients and doctor to use this service from the comfort of their own home to make health care services more efficient, easily-accessible, and cheaper for all involved.
Dentulu and GGHTx will now help people who live in remote or isolated communities to easily access these health care resources, that are readily available for underserved patients with limited movement capabilities, lack of transportation, and little money for doctor/dentist visits. The provision of support for self-management of health care and improved communication and coordination of care between a patient and health care team members will now facilitate and transform access to medical specialists for those undeserved communities.
