HEDFIRST OS
We couldn't find a telehealth platform that our patients and doctors deserved. So we built one.

Most telehealth companies are constrained by third-party software that they cannot innovate because they don't control the roadmap. Hedfirst can bring any combination of patient offers, medication bundles, services and billing arrangements to market in record time.

AI AT THE CORE
The data shows that medical providers + AI are better for patients. Comprehensive care requires all of the world's data.

When we developed the Hedfirst system, we built AI in from the beginning. This allows our providers to have native interfaces to the largest language models while patients receive rich, detailed assessment documents which may reveal new insights, causes and cures.

UNIFIED MESSAGING
Patient & provider stay connected via Hedfirst mobile app, web app or email. Unified messaging is available everywhere you are.

The very best patient care should be characterized by excellent communication that allows patient & provider to quickly find treatment protocols that work best. Members enjoy unlimited provider messaging, all year long.
