ChenMed is a privately held, independent primary care group that is growing rapidly and wildly successful. There are already ChenMed clinics in ten states, and they focus on older, disadvantaged individuals with multiple chronic illnesses.

This model needs better digital diagnostic and information technologies to support its mission. Multifunction Cardiogram Technology is perfect for them. Our technology will make their PCPs super diagnosticians without the need for the costly stress imaging tests, CTA, PET scans, cathlabs, etc. they can objectively measure the treatment programs they prescribe for patients, whether they are wellness practices, primary lifestyle optimization prevention or optimal medical treatments. Also, applications of a truly “endusers demanded” “empathetic reinforcement deep learning neural network adopting ethical and righteous data collection, vetting, honest analysis and independent replivanle and reproducible verifications and vapidations without corrupt intent to defraud the public for profit” design will flourish. They will lead the way to establish real 💯% evidence based practice of medicine for the best outcomes at the lowest possible costs. Mankind will rejoice!
