Remote Medical International Partners With 1health.io to Provide COVID-19 Saliva Tests That Can Be Administered From Anywhere

1health.io empowers partners with the ability to offer convenient, non-invasive, and remote options for diagnostic testing. Partners can offer their patients, customers or employees diagnostic testing that eliminates inconvenient or even risky visits to testing centers while also eliminating long wait times for results. 1health.io’s platform allows partners, like Remote Medical International, to launch their private, secure, and scalable testing portal quickly, and to have tracking and reporting that is essential for supporting a large distributed team.

Remote Medical International works with a wide variety of Fortune 100 corporations to deliver turnkey medical and safety services meeting all of their critical needs. By providing COVID-19 saliva tests that don’t require going to a doctor’s office or testing site, Remote Medical International brings the best-in-class onsite care that is vital for the safe operation of isolated worksites.

“We are pleased to be a part of 1health.io’s launch to provide COVID-19 test kits to our customers,” said Paul Budak, COO of Remote Medical International. “Remote Medical International prides itself on delivering the highest quality of health and safety services for industrial and challenging environments. We do this by creating an ecosystem of medical screenings, on-site medical staff, case management, clinical governance, along with a full suite of COVID-19 services. And now, with 1health.io, our customers can do COVID-19 PCR testing from the comfort of their own home giving them actionable test results prior to arrival at a jobsite.”

1health.io provides testing as a service, enabling partners to easily deploy, manage, and personalize testing at scale. The company pioneered the concept and are the first in the field of DNA testing with a simple self administered COVID-19 saliva test that was authorized by the FDA under EUA earlier this year.

“We aim to make testing easy and accessible for everyone, and have developed the first technology infrastructure that makes testing into a service that our partners can use to launch testing in days for any of their customers anywhere in the country,” said Mehdi Maghsoodnia, CEO of 1health.io. “Remote Medical International’s dedication to providing on-site testing for a variety of remote industries makes them the perfect partner. We are excited to help them provide their customers with an easy and convenient COVID-19 test option to help contain this pandemic.”

The tests can be taken from anywhere - at home, at work, in a hotel, or on-the-go. Saliva is collected in a tube, sealed with reagents, and shipped to a qualified lab in a secure envelope. Test results are delivered digitally to the person within 48 hours of the lab receiving the sample, and can be viewed on the secure patient dashboard on the 1health.io online platform.
