To date, Infermedica’s technology has been used for more than 10 million digital symptom checks with 93% accuracy.&nbsp;“We have all tried searching our own symptoms on the internet and gone down rabbit holes that not only lack accurate answers, but further our anxieties and uncertainties,” said GoGetDoc CEO Mohammad Gaber. “We have partnered with Infermedica to ask the right questions and narrow down possibilities based on real-time patient feedback, giving users a more accurate idea of what they may be experiencing. This is the first step in a more accurate, affordable and user-centered healthcare journey.”&nbsp;In a healthcare environment where patients avoid specialist visits due to high costs and lack of access, SymptomBot offers a preliminary symptom check with an estimated 93% accuracy rate, guiding patients to the appropriate medical services. Powered by Infermedica’s AI and ML smart engine, SymptomBot helps to identify those who can self-treat, qualify for teleconsultation, need to consult a doctor or seek immediate medical treatment.&nbsp;With patient safety always at the forefront, Infermedica’s technology is constructed and validated with practicing physicians, verified by authorized bodies, and respects patient privacy.&nbsp;Infermedica’s research shows that one quarter of users’ cases can be self-treated or treated through teleconsultation, resulting in an estimated $18 billion in healthcare savings each year when patients are led to proper care through the SymptomBot service.&nbsp;"Our healthcare technologies are based on an intelligent AI core, with a reasoning engine and one of the world’s most advanced medical knowledge bases of diseases, symptoms, and risk factors,” said Infermedica CEO Piotr Orzechowski. “These elements are built by physicians and scientists, studying medical concepts, who connect them to create our MetaBase of medical symptoms for precise and easy use by both medical professionals and patients. In their work, they use evidence-based resources, such as well-established medical journals and guidelines from specialized healthcare agencies. We also use external physicians’ feedback to improve our tools for preliminary symptoms analysis and triage on a daily basis. We are pleased to partner with GoGetDoc on our mission to make healthcare accessible for everyone, worldwide." &nbsp;Following SymptomBot’s short and instant consultation, users can easily be seen or speak to a provider who can give a diagnosis and prescribe medication if needed through GoGetDoc’s network.&nbsp;SymptomBot is the latest in a number of services provided by GoGetDoc, which include its <a href="https://start.gogettested.com/vaxyes/register">VaxYes</a> digital vaccine certificate service and Primary and Urgent care virtual health service, continuing to deliver on GoGetDoc’s commitment to create an experience that empowers consumers to find, research and use modern healthcare seamlessly.

<h1 style="margin-left:0px;">How Infermedica helps GoGetDoc members with their symptom questions</h1>

Most of us have experienced a stomach ache after overindulging in a great meal at least once. When this happens, it can lead to uncomfortable feelings of fullness, indigestion, reflux, and even nausea. Although this may happen every so often, it shouldn’t be occurring on a regular basis, especially after eating a normal amount of food. If this is a common recurrence, you should be asking yourself why this keeps happening. While there are many possible reasons, three of the common causes are: allergies, food intolerance, and as a result of medical problems.&nbsp;<h2>Allergies</h2>A food allergy is an immune system reaction that occurs soon after eating a certain food.&nbsp; Everyone's experience of food allergies is different. It depends on the severity of the allergy. If a person has severe allergies, they could have trouble breathing after touching or smelling their food. Beyond severe allergies, the most common allergy symptoms include:&nbsp;&nbsp;<ul><li>Diarrhea</li><li>Nausea</li><li>Vomiting</li><li>Hives</li><li>Itching in the mouth</li><li>Dizziness&nbsp;</li></ul>&nbsp;If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, you should see if you notice a pattern.&nbsp; For example, if it only happens after you eat mushrooms, then it may be because you have a mushroom allergy.&nbsp; Even if the allergies aren’t severe, you should get a diagnosis from a professional.&nbsp;<h2>Food Intolerance&nbsp;</h2>Food intolerance (also known as food sensitivity) means your digestive system has a hard time digesting certain foods. Food intolerances differ from allergies. Intolerances affect your digestive system, rather than your immune system. Instead of quick and sometimes severe symptoms, the intolerance won’t show until a couple of hours after eating.&nbsp; Some of the symptoms include:&nbsp;<ul><li>Stomach ache</li><li>Diarrhea</li><li>Bloating</li><li>Headache</li><li>Heartburn</li></ul>&nbsp;There are many different types of food intolerances. Some of the most common ones in America are dairy, gluten, eggs, fish, and nuts.&nbsp;<h2>Underlying Medical Conditions</h2>Allergies and food intolerances are the most common reasons that people get stomach aches after eating. However, consistent abdominal pain can also be a symptom of a more serious health condition.&nbsp; Some of the possibilities include:&nbsp;&nbsp;<h3>Irritable Bowel System (IBS)</h3>IBS is a chronic condition that affects the large intestine. Although there are different causes, common symptoms are abdominal pain, diarrhea, gas, and changes in the consistency of bowel movements.&nbsp;<h3>Crohn’s disease</h3>This is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation in your digestive tract.&nbsp; It can lead to abdominal pain, fatigue, diarrhea, and malnutrition.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<h3>Celiac disease</h3>With this condition, gluten triggers a reaction from the body’s immune system. When this happens, the reaction damages the lining of the small intestine, causing abdominal pain, diarrhea, and severe pain&nbsp;Other possible medical causes include GERD, peptic ulcers, biliary colic, ulcerative colitis, and sugar alcohol, among others.&nbsp;<h2>When to get care for stomach aches after eating</h2>When you eat a great meal, your only focus should be on enjoying the food and the time you get to spend with your loved ones. If you’re consistently getting a stomach ache after eating, you should focus on finding the underlying cause.&nbsp;Consider using SymptomBot by GoGetDoc for an AI-powered symptom check, covering over 1,300 symptoms with 93% accuracy to try to understand your symptoms better.You can also get a diagnosis, prescription, or education from a certified medical provider by scheduling an appointment with GoGetDoc telehealth and get seen today.&nbsp;

<h2>Migraines vs Headaches</h2>When you feel pain in your head or a throbbing ache in your temples, many of us assume that it’s a simple headache. But, there's also a possibility that you're experiencing a migraine headache. &nbsp;Instead of guessing, it’s important to know and pay attention to your symptoms. &nbsp;This will help you identify what exactly you’re suffering from. By understanding the differences, you’ll be able to better manage the pain in the future.‍ &nbsp;<h2>Characteristics of Migraines &nbsp;</h2>A <a href="https://gogetdoc.com/symptoms/migraine">migraine</a> is an episodic disorder. &nbsp;This means that its symptoms appear in separate episodes. Migraines are most often inherited and tied to your genes, but environmental and lifestyle factors can play a role. &nbsp;Unfortunately, migraines aren’t something that end after an hour. &nbsp;Instead, the attacks have several events that occur over the span of several hours or even days. To better understand if you’re experiencing a migraine, you have to be aware of the four phases that can occur.&nbsp;<h2>Phases of migraine headaches &nbsp;</h2>Early Symptoms (Prodrome):<a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15447695/"> According to this study</a>, 77 percent of people with migraines experience this phase. The symptoms appear 24 to 48 hours before the headache. &nbsp;Typical symptoms include yawning, depression, irritability, food cravings, constipation, and neck stiffness.&nbsp;Migraine Aura: The aura is the second stage of the migraine. Studies have shown that about 25 percent of people with migraines experience one or more focal neurologic symptoms. Symptoms include &nbsp;movement changes, weakness, loss of muscle control and more. The symptoms during this stage fall into two categories: positive and negative.The positive symptoms can be visual, somatosensory, or motor.Seeing bright lines or shapes are visual symptoms. Auditory symptoms reported include hearing noises or music. Somatosensory means symptoms that feel like burning or pain. Migraine sufferers may have jerking or repetitive rhythmic movements as motor symptoms.Negative symptoms are defined as the loss of function. Common lost functions include vision, hearing, feeling, or movement.‍ &nbsp;Headache: Migraine headaches are often unilateral (only on one side of the head). &nbsp;Many people describe them as a throbbing pain. Some people experience nausea or even vomiting due to increased pain. &nbsp;Many people even report photophobia (intolerance to light) or phonophobia (hypersensitivity to sound). &nbsp;For this reason, many people seek relief by laying down in a dark, quiet space. &nbsp;These attacks can last for hours, and even up to days.‍Postdrome: Some people refer to this as the “migraine hangover.” &nbsp;This is because it usually occurs at the end of the headache stage. &nbsp;During this phase, sudden head movements can cause pain where the headache occurred. Many people feel exhausted during this phase, but some experience feelings of relief. &nbsp;&nbsp;<h2>Characteristics of Headaches &nbsp;</h2><a href="https://gogetdoc.com/symptoms/headaches">Headaches</a> are super common and are one of the most popular medical complaints. There are so many possible causes of headaches, including loud noises, stress, changes in sleep patterns, certain foods, underlying illnesses, and so much more. The majority of patients that suffer from headaches have a normal neurologic examination. This indicates that the headache is not related to issues with the nervous system.There are different kinds of headaches, but over 90 percent of them fall under the following categories: migraine headaches, tension-type headaches, and cluster headaches. &nbsp;Now that we know how to recognize a migraine headache, let’s take a look at the other two common types of headaches.‍<h3>Tension-type headaches</h3>These headaches are generally mild to moderate pain. &nbsp;They are usually described as feeling like a tight band is around the head. The common symptoms are: dull, aching head pain, feeling of pressure across the forehead or on the sides and back of the head, and tenderness in the scalp, neck, and shoulder muscles. &nbsp;These types of headaches are split into two different groups: episodic and chronic. &nbsp;Episodic tension-type headaches can last anywhere from 30 minutes long to a week. &nbsp;If they are frequent, they occur less than 15 days a month for 3 months. &nbsp;When they are chronic, it means they last for over 15 days a month for at least 3 months.‍<h3>Cluster headaches</h3>Cluster headaches occur in cluster periods, which are frequent attacks that can last from weeks to months. These attacks are usually followed by remission periods when the headaches stop. Many people who experience cluster headaches have reported that the pain often wakes them up in the middle of the night. &nbsp;The pain is usually felt in or around one eye and on one side of the head. Other common symptoms are restlessness, redness of your eye on the affected side, stuffy or runny nose on the affected side, pale skin or flushing on your face.‍<h2>When to See a Doctor for Your Headaches</h2>It’s perfectly normal to get a headache every once in a while. &nbsp;It's also normal to want to check with a doctor when experiencing routine headaches.Schedule a <a href="https://www2.gogetdoc.com/blog/headaches-vs-migraines-whats-the-difference#">telehealth</a> visit if your headaches are recurring. You should also talk to a doctor if your headaches are paired with other symptoms. By doing so, your doctor will be able to help identify whether you’re experiencing a migraine or a headache, and what you can do to treat your symptoms. &nbsp;If you’re interested in <a href="https://www.gogetdoc.com/symptombot">checking your symptoms online</a>, you should try <a href="https://member.gogetdoc.com/chat/start/symptom-bot/9">SymptomBot</a> by GoGetDoc. &nbsp;You can get provides personalized answers to your symptom questions.

<h1 style="margin-left:0px;">Headaches vs. Migraines: What's the difference?</h1>

What healthcare need are you ignoring because you don't have time to get it checked out? Or because you don’t have an opinion that you trust?Too many people are putting up with symptoms that are affecting their daily lives. For some, it’s headaches. Others, stomach aches. The consequences are real.The <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4351276/">National Institute of Health </a>studied why people are avoiding care. It’s not a big surprise. The biggest factors are those common barriers to healthcare: cost, insurance, and time. These are problems that can be solved.&nbsp;<h2>What is SymptomBot?</h2>SymptomBot by GoGetDoc is the modern way for people to get a trusted result, then help them get the right care. Let's remove the barriers to feeling and living better. Improve your care experience. You can feel better.

Now you’ll ask, why is SymptomBot free?It’s an important part of how we believe we can change healthcare. Getting trusted answers to your symptom questions online should:- Be easy to use&nbsp;- Be available anywhere, anytime&nbsp;- Lead you to effective treatment- Be smart- Save you time and moneyLet's see how SymptomBot works.&nbsp;<h2>SymptomBot is Easy to Use</h2>How do you communicate with your friends, family, and coworkers?

Welcome to the 21st century.&nbsp;SymptomBot is a smart AI chat service.&nbsp; You'll answer a few questions, and quickly get an initial result.

Do you need to talk to a provider to get a prescription right now? Done. Is your symptom part of a bigger diagnosis, like food allergies? Get tests, results, and effective digital-first treatment in one place. Other online symptom searches fall short at these final steps where it actually matters. No more care dead ends can mean a happier, healthier you.&nbsp;<h2>SymptomBot is Smart&nbsp;</h2>Your online diagnosis must be accurate, so SymptomBot provides 93% diagnostic accuracy. Why does this matter? An unnecessary trip to the ER for a bad diagnosis is expensive. Some headaches can be cured in a day. Others won't go away without the right care.So, by getting an accurate initial symptom check, you can take the right steps. At the same time, a bad diagnosis can put you on the wrong path.&nbsp;<h2>SymptomBot Saves You Time and Money</h2>How much money can SymptomBot save you? Let's dig into numbers:An initial symptom check with SymptomBot is free. It only takes 5 minutes. Let's see what you're saving:&nbsp;- According to a <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31589283/">JAMA</a> study, the average American accounts for $2,300 in wasted healthcare expenses in 2019. These costs include over-treatment, failure of care coordination, and failure of care delivery.&nbsp;- The <a href="https://www.ajmc.com/view/opportunity-costs-of-ambulatory-medical-care-in-the-united-states">American Journal of Managed Care </a>found that it takes an average of 121 minutes to seek medical care. 37 minutes driving, 87 minutes at the office.What can the average American do with another $2,300 and the time saved on seeking care? A lot. Dream big. This is revolutionary.GoGetDoc is here to make modern health care easier for everyone to find and use. SymptomBot is a step in that direction.<a href="https://member.gogetdoc.com/chat/start/symptom-checker/9"> Get checked today. </a>We can see you now.

<h1 style="margin-left:0px;">VaxYes is part of the new GoGetDoc platform</h1>

Since our company was born in 2019, our team has been united around the mission of making modern healthcare easier to use and find. Navigating healthcare is a challenge everyone faces at some point in their life. For themselves and their family. Which doctor to visit. What treatment to choose. With the technology and knowledge at our disposal today, healthcare shouldn’t be this hard.&nbsp;In the three years since we launched, we’ve enabled tens of thousands of Americans to understand, dispute, or pay their medical bills. We have also supported millions of people during the pandemic to care for themselves and their families through easy-to-use Covid-19 diagnostic testing. Recently we helped thousands create modern digital vaccine passports every day (across the country) to help them get back to normal. This is an incredible feat for any company, let alone a young one.&nbsp;We’ve been blown away by our community's response to our platform. Importantly you have helped us gain a better understanding of the challenges Americans across the country face in navigating the healthcare system, and more drive to solve them.&nbsp;Many have shared stories with us of lack of access to healthcare, years of skipping primary care, the challenges of navigating a healthcare system That seems focused on the financial interests of large corporate interests, not the patients. Not our community.&nbsp;Today, we’re excited to announce the new name of our Company, GoGetDoc.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;While our name has changed, our mission hasn’t. We’re more dedicated now than ever before to help all Americans, everywhere, find and use modern healthcare. We’re dedicated to helping our customers and members leverage the power of technology and the community and numbers to get a better, more fair healthcare experience.&nbsp;We want those who are jaded by decades of ever-worsening experiences with healthcare to find a platform that works for them. We want to empower our customers to get more of their healthcare jobs done securely, without the jargon and the mazes.&nbsp;Getting back to normal with our vaccine passport solution VaxYes.&nbsp;We built VaxYes because our community and members were shocked that in 2021 they had to carry proof of vaccination on paper, laminated in their wallet. With the support and feedback of users, VaxYes has grown to be one of the largest, secure, universal vaccine passports across the country. And it’s growing. Today we’re announcing that we have made VaxYes free forever, for everyone.&nbsp;In addition, we’re announcing new features such as QR-based venue verification. This feature enables anyone requesting to see your original vaccine information to get securely access original documents.&nbsp; We have more exciting updates coming for VaxYes, stay tuned.&nbsp;We are more excited now than ever about the future, and what healthcare will look like for all of us.&nbsp;Thank you for all your support

<h2>There are still jobs to be done in healthcare</h2>Three years ago we founded our company and our first product Wellpay with the mission to change how the healthcare system speaks about money to us consumers. We set out to be a different company, a human and provider centered company that made an impact on the basic healthcare experiences of many.Why did focus on how providers and consumers talk about money during the healthcare experience? The answer is simple…Because the money interaction was and remains one of the worst jobs that needs to be done when we consume healthcare. It was also a personal struggle that my family, and I experienced over and over, especially with three kids.<img class="image_resized" style="width:377.594px;" src="https://assets-global.website-files.com/60c11c5750b29528de9eadb8/615cdef134af35f46742308a_tpYlLvIwGoXuNZQ6QxJKpXXDszT_63u8vM_a8ROp_oB6xZeadvAQQRb9izaGgtqoybWRUzkBqBFOYqFx-DUT80-qMfJ8EYp2_q2v1BO7gAIaviDLIjQIEaE_kzRILdcn8zvMaTaI%3Ds0.jpeg" alt="">When the once in a century (at least we hope it is) pandemic hit in early 2020 our team went through the phases of panic, fear, stress that we all experienced. What’s going to happen to me, my family, our team, and to our company. Those feelings really only subsided when the vaccines came, but our mission helped propel us into action.We realized as a team that while improving how money jobs were done in healthcare was critical, we couldn’t sit back while the pandemic played out and not actively help our community of providers, consumers. There were other jobs to be done.We did what we do best, build. We built a platform (GoGetTested) to make covid testing jobs easier for consumers, providers, and labs…and we helped over a million people get tested. We built a platform (GoGetVax) to help people get vaccinated…and helped hundreds of thousands get vaccinated. Most recently we built a simple but powerful digital wallet vaccine solution…and we’re now helping thousands save, verify and use their vaccine cards.In short, we went all out to make sure we helped get these jobs done.Today as we look to a future without the pandemic impacting our daily lives (our home state, California fully opened today) we’re breathing a long hopeful sigh of relief, and excitement.But…the job is not done especially in healthcare. We learned a lot about what we can do to build a more consumer focused or powered healthcare system. Telemedicine walls fell, we learned how to do things differently (sometimes in as little as three days). However, there is still soo much to do.the job is not done especially in healthcareToday we’re starting the next phase in our company’s development, the phase were we go back to crushing the barriers that make wellness and health soo complicated in the US and the world. We’re going to do it in the best way we know how…we’re going to make it easier and accessible for everyone to get healthcare jobs done. In a nod to the pandemic we’re going to call it GoGetDoc…We can’t wait to show you what we’ve built.
