Announcement

Medicalchain Opens New Office in Switzerland

Since its foundation, Medicalchain has been growing rapidly and we are delighted to announce the official opening of our new office in Switzerland. We have a global vision and geographical expansion is necessary to achieve this.

Product Development

MyClinic.com continues to improve and we are working to our timeline for version 2 which is eagerly anticipated for the end of Q2 2019.

We are working extra hard to confirm contracts and are hopeful that our services will be available within the NHS as well as the private sector soon.

MyClinic.com will also be available on Android very soon.

Timeline:

Considering how difficult it can be to keep up with our progress, especially product development — we have created an interactive timeline on our website to update you clearly on our road to achieving our goals.

Want to help? Give us feedback!

Please continue to download our iOS version of the MyClinic.com app and let us know your feedback on version 1.0 by sending us your comments to — [email protected]

This month marks the end of an eventful year for Medicalchain. With the conceptualisation and delivery of the first rendition of the MyClinic.com application, to the plethora of events all around the world that members of the team have presented at.

We appreciate all the support we have received for what we are trying to achieve, from our loyal community members to representatives we meet at our events — including the wider public at large.

Overall this year we have represented at over 52 events in over 25 cities around the world!

We look forward to the new year and all that we have in line to achieve in keeping with our roadmap. Notably, the updated versions of the MyClinic.com application and the release of the Health Passport, which will truly enable patients to hold their own data. With more good news on the way with exciting partnerships close to being announced.
