Getting a Medical Diagnosis Without Ever Leaving Your Room
For centuries, getting access to health care in rural parts of the country has been especially difficult. Thanks to telemedicine companies like PlushCare, that reality is changing.
PlushCare connects users to doctors using video chat. It's available in 31 states and counting.
Dr. James Wantuck, Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer of PlushCare, explains why telemedicine is a more convenient option than visiting a traditional doctor's office. Dr. Wantuck also weighs in on how the potential CVS-Aetna merger could impact the health care industry.
Space exploration is also getting a boost amid all the excitement surrounding space tourism. Satellite launch service provider Rocket Lab secured a partnership with NASA this month to develop a solar sail launch for deep space or interplanetary exploration purposes. Founder and CEO Peter Beck joined Cheddar to discuss the details of the technology and the timeline for launch.
