Product Description: Travelers who need medical attention or a specialist consultation end up getting treatment at high-cost hospitals and ER centers. We would like to avoid that, especially in the pandemic situation. Air Doctor makes medical care accessible globally to any traveler or expat by connecting them to a local private practitioner. This improves the customer journey, empowers private doctors and reduces costs all in one without lowering any standards of quality or service they are used to.
Business Model: We are a commission-based company; we take a commission per transaction from the total Doctor's fee.
Competitors: Companies like ZocDoc and Practo, providing a similar solution for local people in their home country.
Competitive Edge: Air Doctor is a digital platform that provides a global medical network of physicians and makes it accessible to any traveler, anywhere.
Market Opportunity: When people start to travel, a solution like Air Doctor will become a must-have.
