Global Telehealth Exchange
On May 22nd, Solve.Care introduced Global Telehealth Exchange (GTHE). GTHE is a first-of-its-kind landmark deployment of blockchain and digital currency aimed at enabling patients to easily access healthcare services anywhere in the world. To-date GTHE has physicians signed up from 28 countries.
On June 25th, the Ambassador Program for GTHE was launched to engage with carefully chosen physicians and healthcare professionals to spread the word about the benefits to healthcare that Solve.Care and GTHE are looking to create. The program does not only promote Solve.Care solutions, but more importantly, it promotes our mission of making high quality affordable healthcare accessible worldwide. The best representatives of the industry are always real users of the product. Ambassadors are also involved in creating a road map of GTHE and help to shape it from the feedback they receive through physicians worldwide. We are privileged to have prominent figures among our Ambassadors such as:
Dr. Bhagwant Singh Ratta MD, MBBS, FICS, FAIS, FACS
Dr. Ratta is a Pediatric Surgeon, Urologist with 30 years of clinical experience and formerly the President of the Telemedicine Society of India

Solve.Care believes in strong community engagement and participation in all of its activities.
“When I first heard about the vision of GTHE, I was truly excited of it’s potential. Through GTHE, physicians can finally practice medicine the way they want to. GTHE holds the promise of how healthcare should be. It will allow us to achieve the Utopia of medicine.” –Dr. Swapna Vaidya, Psychiatrist-Associate at Kaiser Permanente Washington
Global Telehealth Exchange Welcomes Physicians
On December 23rd, we announced the activation of the first batch of physicians on its Global Telehealth Exchange (GTHE). Physicians have now been listed on the GTHE blockchain registry. Here they can publish their profiles, rates, availability, and accept appointments. GTHE offers physicians a unique level of autonomy, control, and automation over how they practice medicine; individual physicians can decide how, when, where, and to whom they will offer healthcare, as well as determining the parameters and perimeters of their offering, be it local or global, specific or general. The efficiency of GTHE also removes many unnecessary administrative tasks which plague the healthcare industry today. With the recent deployment of the first batch of physicians on the Global Telehealth Exchange (GTHE) network, see what GTHE can offer you in this new video for the GTHE Provider Wallet.
“This marks a milestone moment for Solve.Care and our global community of physicians as we continue to tackle the challenges facing the global healthcare system. Telehealth is a major real-world solution that is breaking down barriers in our healthcare systems, increasing accessibility, and reducing inequality. GTHE goes even further than a simple teleconsultation and is designed to meet the needs of physicians and patients alike, whilst minimizing paperwork and bureaucracy and respecting the rights and privacy of both patients and physicians.” –Pradeep Goel, CEO of Solve.Care

Team.Care Network, Solve.Care’s Response to the Covid-19 Pandemic
Team.Care Network is helping organizations manage their workforce, no matter where they are. Team.Care is built on blockchain, utilizing Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) technology for real contemporary problems. The solution has a specialized focus on tracking employee wellbeing and risk to Covid -19 exposure. The pandemic has affected our daily lives and our way of working has changed. Whether working remotely, or in the workplace, businesses face new challenges. Are employers getting enough proper feedback from their employees, in order to help them cope?
Solve.Care is already supporting Angel Kids Pediatrics, one of Florida’s leading pediatric practices, with Team.Care Network. Angel Kids Pediatrics is using Solve.Care’s Team.Care Network to track their healthcare staff’s health and wellbeing. Thanks to Team.Care they were able to successfully identify multiple cases of COVID-19 and the solution has helped them to safeguard the rest of their team and patients.
“Our patients don’t come in on their own. They are brought in by their parents who are more at risk of contracting the virus. One of the best ways to help contain this pandemic is through the timely sharing of knowledge and focusing on prevention. We have a responsibility to our patients and their families to keep them as safe as possible. We employ the strictest protocols to ensure that our healthcare facilities remain sanitized and free of the virus. And Team.Care is one of those measures.” –Dr. Affan, CEO of Angel Kids.
