San Jose, CA – SAMI-Aid, a patient-focused telemedicine platform and healthcare concierge company, has released its SAMI-Aid Premium Membership offering. Originally offering patients an affordable flat-fee payment structure to access a variety of on-demand telemedicine services, SAMI-Aid’s Premium Membership gives patients access to a broader range of telemedicine benefits for just $79.99 per month.

“Oftentimes, patients can be deterred from scheduling preventative medical appointments or regularly scheduled behavioral health appointments due to high healthcare costs and other barriers, ultimately to the detriment of the patient’s overall wellbeing,” said John Farhangui, SAMI-Aid CEO and Founder. “We’re launching the new SAMI-Aid Premium Membership to give patients peace of mind in regards to their healthcare needs.”

The SAMI-Aid Premium Membership gives members the following benefits:

• Two complimentary phone or online consultations per month, including any combination of general medicine, dermatology, therapy, and psychiatry appointments.
• Premium 24/7 healthcare concierge support, as Premium Members will be automatically placed at the top of the queue when calling SAMI-Aid customer service, anytime day or night.
• Local physician price search, where Premium Members can use SAMI-Aid’s exclusive tool to find a doctor, clinic, or lab test nearby—complete with special pricing information not found elsewhere.
• Medical tourism wizard and dedicated agent, where Premium Members can use SAMI-Aid’s exclusive tool to find pricing for elective procedures across the world, including in attractive tourist destinations.
• Coming Later This Year: Artificial intelligence health profile, where Premium Members will be able to complete a brief survey and SAMI-Aid will match the member with a local doctor who’s tailored specially to the member’s needs and preferences—including specialty, gender, location, and price.

“SAMI-Aid was founded on the idea of giving ultimate medical access and information to patients at an affordable price point, which is exactly what we’re doing with the launch of the SAMI-Aid Premium Membership,” added Farhangui. “And at a price point lower than most health insurance premiums, we hope that SAMI-Aid members can get the affordable medical access they need to maintain healthy and productive lives.”
