Director/Vice President, Engineering
Medmo
Medical imaging is a fundamental piece of healthcare; from prevention to diagnosis and treatment, imaging is a key entry point into a more critical patient journey. Each year, hundreds of millions of tests are prescribed, yet the way imaging is facilitated in America is fundamentally broken. Patients often wait longer, pay more, and struggle to retrieve records of their imaging, which ultimately leads to worsened outcomes and negative experiences.
Medmo is changing the medical imaging industry by improving the way that radiology referrals are facilitated. By creating the connective tissue between top imaging centers and providers, we ensure our patients receive affordable, high-quality care while our imaging partners improve the efficiency of their centers.
Medmo operates in all 50 states and delivers solutions across ordering providers, imaging centers, patients, and insurance companies. Medmo is a leading healthcare technology company that's transforming how patients and providers schedule imaging appointments. By leveraging proprietary software applications hosted in AWS and built with a modern stack including Node.js, React, and MySQL, we're enhancing operational efficiencies and building the next generation of AI-driven patient engagement tools and provider solutions.
