In-app voice and video to improve digital health experiences.

NEW YORK - February 14, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Opear MD, a New York-based house call and telehealth platform, has announced a strategic partnership with in-app chat, voice, and video leader Sendbird. Facilitating rapid information-sharing and ongoing communication both before and after exams, enhanced in-app chat functionality will improve outcomes and experiences for digital health patients.

Opear MD's apps ("Opear" and "Opear for Providers") help patients find and book house call and telehealth specialists anywhere in the country. Rather than pairing a patient and provider randomly, as is the industry standard, Opear bridges the gap between digital and in-person care by allowing patients to choose their own provider and continue the relationship if they choose to. 

Enhancing in-app communication through this integration with Sendbird - the #1 communication platform for in-app user and customer social engagement - Opear will further its mission to make digital health more personal and combine the best of online and in-person experiences. 

"Sendbird and Opear MD's partnership further enhances the ever-growing demand for digital health services," said Sendbird Product Marketing Manager Bryan Bui. "Opear MD users can create much more personal relationships with their medical professionals via rich interactions both virtually and through chat, as well as in-person house calls. We're very excited to help Opear MD deliver top-tier healthcare to patients across the country."

Featuring rich voice and video in addition to chat and feeds, Sendbird boasts the industry's most robust offerings, scale, and cloud infrastructure for leading brands like Reddit, Doordash, and Paytm.

The "Opear" and "Opear for Providers" apps are available for free download for iOS and Android.
