Hi Dhruv, how are you guys HIPAA compliant? As far as I can tell, Slack isn't HIPAA compliant: https://twitter.com/SlackHQ/stat... Disclaimer: I'm the founder of http://accountablehq.com so I know a bit about HIPAA.

@kevinleehenry also my question as well. curious to see if @dhruvakumar's solution is skirting the regulation by having it as just a "second opinion" versus medical advice

@kevinleehenry Hi Kevin. I have already replied to you but put it as a separate comment. 😄
Maker
@m1lesv Not at all, Miles. In fact we are in the process of becoming HIPAA compliant as a platform and working to get fully HIPAA compliant.
Tyler Hayes
@m1lesv @kevinleehenry AFAICT it isn't HIPAA-compliant for the same reason First Opinion isn't: neither the company nor the doctors are based in the U.S.
Maker
@thetylerhayes You got the point Tyler. Our processes are secure. By meaning on working to be HIPAA compliant, I meant registering a US company and getting only US doctors. It's for people who want such a thing.

Slack is definitively becoming a platform that will centralize a lot of interactions with other applications. But I always thought that those interactions will be "work" related. A bot to do expenses (Birdly,https://www.getbirdly.com/), one to do scrum, one for support or one for calls (http://ottspott.co/). I got the feeling that medical advice should not be linked to your work environment. So, do people use Slack personally? would not be more appropriate to have integration on Facebook, Whatsapp or Telegram which are more personal. Even an Amazon echo.

@picsoung I'm wondering this as well. Is Icliniq available otherwise? I wouldn't use it in Slack but I would perhaps through Facebook.
Maker
@marygreenim @picsoung Hi Mary. You can access it on icliniq.com. And our slack app works through the slackbot. Your admin cannot see it and only you can see it. Its hundred percent safe. :)
Tyler Hayes
@picsoung I actually think this makes some sense in Slack, if only it's also partnered with your HR/insurance management platform. Even that's still a bit of a stretch, but if Slack has all your employee data including your insurance # and more... I could see it for some people. Still, I think most people would prefer for it to be the other way around: a separate experience that links with your company's HR backend, like Zenefits.
Maker
@thetylerhayes That's a neat idea , Tyler. Thank you. We are going to see how we can build on zenefits.

@picsoung I see it working as well. If I would be an employee, it really would feel good that the business gives me a feature for medical support.
Ross Currie
Anyone else thinking that this should be called SlackMD?
Maker
@rossdcurrie Hahaha. Good one, Ross. We will think about it.

The idea to make an app on slack to access icliniq's medical second opinion services is based on the belief that "messaging app as a platform" is the future. Slack is more than an app and essentially a community. We have been rated as the 5th best telemedicine company in the world by Healthline -- > http://www.healthline.com/health... We are happy to launch on slack now. We are looking forward to get your comments and feedbacks. :)

Hi Nicolas, The idea for Slackdoctor came from our own team's use of medical advice needs through slack. :) We realised its an ideal perk for any team especially for start-ups. Trust me. Its a brilliant experience to get access to a doctor right from your slackbot. Also no one can see the conversations you have on slackbot. And we actually previously did iCliniq on whatsapp. We got banned by whatsapp but came back on Telegram which got hunted here on PH and is used by lot of people now. --> http://icliniq.com/telegram/index
Maker
Hi Kevin, Probably its an opportunity for us to work together. :) Let's chat sometime.

Do doctors get paid for giving their second opinion?
Maker
@angiehan Yes. They do. We already have a portal called Icliniq.com where we have solved more than 100,000 health issues. Slackdoctor is our new offering 😄

Hi Dhruv, i have a query regarding your technology.How did you manage timeslots for doctors.are you guys creating timeslots upto one month in advance for appointment and booking?
Stewart Hawking
The biggest scam company on the internet. Waste of money, zero help. I doubt the “doctors” are even real. I’m going to fight the charge on my credit card.
Maker
@stewart_hawking Hi, we checked multiple times over the last three months and noticed that there was no TRANSACTION at all in your name. And we see that you have not upvoted/rated any other company as well. Could you be more specific about it or establish proof of your transaction here?
