One impact of the ongoing pandemic lockdown: more and more people are seeing their doctors remotely. Virtual doctor visits are surging, with private insurers pledging to cover telemedicine care for people with the coronavirus. . . An entrepreneur who saw the promise of virtual and mobile-phone based healthcare early is Ting Shih, who was given the challenge of creating a social enterprise that could impact over a billion people when she was a student at MIT. . . That’s how her company, ClickMedix, was born. Ting created a mobile-based healthcare service to give people in developing countries access to doctors and to drive down the cost of healthcare. . . ClickMedix has since benefitted more than half a million people in 21 countries. “I envision a world where everyone—regardless of income, gender, race, or social status—has easy ‘one-click’ access to effective healthcare,” Ting says. . . Ting shared her vision on the WITW stage. You can watch the full conversation via video link in bio by searching Ting Shih. 🎥
