Shoppers to Boost Medical Cannabis Patient Acquisition with HelloMD Partnership
HelloMD chosen as first telehealth provider for Medical Cannabis by Shoppers website
TORONTO, May 1, 2019 /CNW/ – HelloMD will now provide patients in Canada with convenient access to practitioner-led advice about medical cannabis through a new relationship with Shoppers Drug Mart’s online medical cannabis platform.
Since its launch in 2015, HelloMD’s turnkey telehealth platform has facilitated more than 100,000 virtual consults between medical cannabis patients and licensed practitioners. HelloMD is currently active in Canada and the United States.
The Medical Cannabis by Shoppers website now features a dedicated portal operated by HelloMD. Patients can access live video consultations with licensed healthcare practitioners through the dedicated portal seven days a week, from the comfort of their home.
Following a consultation with a healthcare practitioner, patients that receive a medical document authorizing their registration as a medical cannabis patient may return to the Medical Cannabis by Shoppers website to register and begin choosing from its wide selection of approved products, or direct HelloMD to send their medical document to an alternative licensed producer.
We are honoured that Shoppers Drug Mart has trusted us to provide discreet, expert guidance to their patients seeking online advice about medical cannabis. We are excited to be part of this innovation, and to help Canadian patients get more convenient access to information and treatment.
Larry Lisser, senior vice-president of business development at HelloMD
