Abstract
Instamedi is meant to be the “Instagram like App†for the medical community
A picture is worth a thousand words. Almost everyday in a clinical setting is a good opportunity to share the knowledge and findings that a doctor can see in a normal work day. And what we see we tend to remember it easier than what we read or hear in a conference. On the other hand, the use of smartphones with high resolution cameras has explode among the medical community.
The idea of medical photo sharing is nothing new but not in an easy and portable way as Instamedi is designed.
Instamedi let users collect, upload and share professional images and photographs through the Instamedi network to make them accessible to other professionals for educational purposes, anywhere in the world, at anytime. With different levels of classification and searching capabilities (By systems, anatomical regions, medical specialties, specific tags, specific users and also based on worldwide popularity of the images according to the users preferences). From the clinical aspect of an injury, an xray of a fracture, a dermal lesin, or any other type of medical image sharable content (infographics, posters in a congress, steps in a technique, physical examination details, etc..)
Some technical details that need to be covered involve intensive programming knowledge and a professional development team (backend system for the database, professional graphic design, authentication systems through professional and medical social sharing plattforms (linkedin, doximity, etc..), HIPAA/PIPEDA compliant), so financial support is needed to make it expandable worldwide.
We are looking for the right business model to make the app sustainable and profitable. Different possible business models will be proposed to the opinion of the audience.
