Connecting patients with charity care
Supporting clinicians who provide charity care
Angeldocs is the online charity care matching system under development by Omnimedix Institute, bringing together patients who need care with physicians wishing to provide charity care on their own terms and schedule.
Angeldocs integrates geolocalization, scheduling and physician tax documentation, while protecting physician annonymity and reducing missed appointments.
Angeldocs meets a growing patient need:
- The uninsured population continues to grow.
- The need for charity care - particularly specialty care - continues to grow.
- Pro bono services are difficult to locate.
Angeldocs recognizes the realities of physician charity care:
- Clinicians want an efficient tax-documented method for providing charity services.
- The percentage of physicians providing charity care has dropped from about 75% to 68% in the last ten years. (Cunningham & Mary, 2006.)
- Finding specialists willing to provide charity care is a challenge for Community Health Centers, Emergency Departments and Social Service Agencies.
Angeldocs makes it faster and easier for physicians to fulfill their personal charitable service goals.
