I find it an awesome idea too. Read the whitepaper and I'd be very keen on testing this out.

However I'm not US based so I wonder at launch how it will work, will it be available to US people only?

Thanks, coin@coin. We think it’s pretty awesome, too. The consumer-facing product will definitely be available to people outside the US. However, there may be rules or regulations in other countries that would impact certain functionality. For example, some countries have specific rules about how telemedicine can be used, and that would impact how users engage with telemedicine services on the platform. We are working with legal counsel to make sure the consumer product complies with all rules and regulations - both in the US and in other countries.

In Russia recently have been adopted a law regulating telemedicine. So it is now allowed in our country. Are you going to provide services in Russia? How do you see your steps for entering the market as we have several players here

Yes, we expect that the consumer product will be available in Russia. But just to be clear, the platform enables an ecosystem and marketplace where companies can offer products and services to consumers and other companies. We are not expecting to be a telemedicine provider ourselves. Instead, our goal is to enable many different telemedicine companies to use the platform to connect with consumers, insurers, health systems, employers, wellness plan providers and other players so that they can offer products and services directly to them.
