Q: What is WorldDoc's Health Management System?
A:The WorldDoc personal health management system allows users to become active partners in making health decisions for themselves and their families by providing easy to use tools to research and understand health conditions and treatment options for both acute and chronic care concerns. This information answers the questions “What might I have?;” and “What can I do about it?;” and “How can I become healthier?” All WorldDoc content is developed by board-certified physician specialists and written at an 8th grade comprehension level wherever possible. Personal health information is stored in an electronic personal health record, which is encrypted and password protected to meet all security standards, including HIPAA Guidelines. Personal health information can be shared only by the user or with the user’s permission. Based on WorldDoc user results to date, it is anticipated that regular users of WorldDoc tools will save money for themselves and for 3rd party payers and have improved health outcomes.

Q: How is the WorldDoc Foundation Supported?
A: The WorldDoc Foundation is a tax-exempt charitable organization and does receive some donations from the public. However, the majority of the support comes through partnership agreements with governmental and community-based organizations that contract with the Foundation to provide health related services to their members/participants. WorldDoc Inc. contributes general operating expenses on an in-kind basis.

Q: How can my organization partner with the WorldDoc Foundation?
A: The WorldDoc Foundation is looking for additional partners who operate programs that fall into the categories listed under “Partnership Opportunities” on the home page. Generally, WorldDoc Foundation “Partners” are non-profit or governmental entities. To initiate discussions about a potential partnership, an organization should contact Garth Winckler at gwinckler@worlddoc.org outlining your interest.

Q: How are costs determined for partnership agreements?
A: The WorldDoc Foundation is able to provide partner organizations serving at-risk populations and special target groups with WorldDoc “My Health 24/7” user licenses at substantially reduced prices over those normally charged by WorldDoc. This is normally done through a “site license agreement” that allows for unlimited use by program participants. Implementation fees may be charged to cover out-of-pocket costs of customizing content and/or integrating services with the partner’s site. WorldDoc Foundation staff will help identify grant sources that may be available to partially fund the partnership. The WorldDoc Foundation may waive fees for projects that bring other value to the table. Projects can also be developed which produce revenues to offset the cost of the partnership.
