Changing times signify opportunities to discard old, ineffective ways of delivering healthcare information.

A recent Economist article states:

The Internet disrupted the music business; Google disrupted the media; cloud-based companies could become disrupters in other inefficient industries.  Buzzwords such as “Health Care 2.0”, … could soon acquire real meaning.”*

MatchMerge is about disruptive technology to change the way electronic healthcare information benefits patients.

Through web services like patient identitification, retrieval of patient data, decision support and printing of healthcare documents, healthcare can be supported inexpensively and flexibly in the cloud.

For an example, visit our Vaccine Forecast Decision Support Service (VF-DSS) demo  and Decision Support page.
