1. Using Medmo’s technology, patients can get their physician-prescribed scan from a local accredited imaging center at an affordable price.

2. “I saw a desperate need for patients who were prescribed essential medical imaging tests, but simply could not afford them,” said Christopher Kelly. MD, MS, co-founder and CEO of Medmo. “The ‘name your price’ concept has worked well in the travel industry, and we’re leveraging our expertise and vision in the medical space to provide patients with a unique, innovative solution that meets their medical needs at a cost that fits within their budget.”

3. Dr. Kelly treats uninsured patients regularly, and said he created Medmo to help solve the issue of unaffordability, and to put the patient back in charge.
