MY911 is a Texas llc

We believe that high quality, well-coordinated, and cost-efficient healthcare in the USA is achievable. Here’s why:

Monitoring Technology

Telehealth and remote Patient monitoring technology and services are maturing, and can make an impact on chronic illness when coordinated with brick and mortar clinics and healthcare facilities (the Patient’s Medical Home).

‘Virtual’ Care Team

Primary Care Providers can now lead a multi-disciplinary ‘virtual’ care team using
Telehealth to extend the reach of the Primary Care Medical Home all the way to the
Patient’s home.

24 Hour Access

When additional care is needed, Patients and their caregivers can have twenty-four hour access to medical triage decision-making that is coordinated with the Patient’s primary and secure electronic medical chart.

Cost-and-Quality Analytics

Patient care navigation to the ‘right tool for the job’ for the Patient’s specialist care needs, using transparent provider and facility cost-and-quality analytics that are coming available, will improve patient experience and reduce unnecessary medical costs.

Reducing Workload

When these innovations are delivered to treating providers with a clear focus to reduce provider administrative workload, the balance in treatment versus admin can be restored.

Patient Experience and Outcomes

Healthcare Providers who employ these innovations are rewarded for the improvements in Patient experience and outcomes under the new and evolving payment models.
