The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast What To Do In a Medical Emergency w/ ER Physician-CEO Benjamin Jack, MD, Duration Health
Today's topic is timely. Plain and simple.
"We prescribe and ship emergency Med Kits, with the same Rx and OTC medications doctors like me carry for personal emergencies," says Dr. Jack. "We prescribe meds now, before you need them."
Our guest and friend on The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast is Benjamin Jack, MD.
He's the Founder of Duration Health and an Emergency Physician.
"As an emergency medicine physician, I have always kept an emergency kit that includes a unique collection of supplies," said Dr. Jack. "Because of my access to specialized equipment and medications, and the training necessary to deploy them in difficult situations, I'm prepared to care for myself and others when regular healthcare is unavailable."
Not every Patient has access to a Physician. We understand that.
The "Medical Kit" Dr. Jack and his team have created fills in a gap left for many Patients.
“Duration Health mixes telemedicine with a survivalist mindset to sell medical go-bags — basic prescription drugs someone might need while traveling or trapped at home.”
—Axios The Medical Kit includes: You have unlimited email access that goes directly to a remote emergency physician; Your customized package of medications will be delivered straight to your home; delivered straight to your home Medication Guide; In addition to our robust online guide, your Med Kit also includes a printed field manual; Physician Online Consultation - Duration Health reviews your emergency preparedness plans in a 30-minute one-on-one with an emergency physician and more.
"This preparation has always given me a certain confidence in facing unforeseen circumstances, whether it be at home, travel abroad, or while enjoying outdoor activities like camping, climbing and hiking."
"I founded Duration Health to bring this same level of comprehensive medical preparedness to my patients, and to provide free and open access to core medical knowledge required in emergencies."
"Duration Health helps you stay safe with medications, knowledge and support to face a range of urgent medical situations, when regular care is unavailable. We're on a mission to legitimize and democratize access to emergency medical care for all those who need it."
