This release has an interesting twist
https://stockhouse.com/news/press-releases/2022/01/27/medx-health-announces-addition-of-two-new-screening-services-locations-in-ottawa
"This represents the next step in our business plan for North America. Patients can now enter the pharmacy and have a telemedicine consult with a General Practitioner and receive an immediate referral to the Dermsecure Screening Service on site. Incorporating a telemedicine consult with a General Practitioner is a vital step to make DermSecure screening services easily accessible to the public by facilitating both the referral and the screening at the same location."
So here is the twist you go to a pharmacy and have a suspicious mole, you can have a consultation on the spot with a telemedicine GP who then has the ability to refer you to the Dermatologist on the DermSecure platform. Now you reduce the cost as it is an insured service, and it is a one-stop visit.
If this works MedX would be able to leverage all existing telemedicine platforms in Canada.
This works in any market that requires a GP referral. Canada,UK,etc.

as you say "if it works" You still need a large pharmacy chain. Encouraging for sure.
