About MedMaestro:
MedMaestro is an innovative healthcare startup that is solving one of the most difficult problems in hospital-based healthcare -- medication reconciliation. This is the process hospitals use to obtain an accurate and comprehensive list of a patient’s medications when they are admitted to the hospital. There are about three medication history errors per admitted patient in the country; with about half leading to patient harm.
Our team is solving that problem through advanced databases, robotic telepresence, and a team that specializes in medication reconciliation.
We have some great opportunities for individuals that want to apply their skills to help countless people receive safer healthcare.
