Mediref aims to revolutionize written communication between health professionals by creating a secure mobile platform for referrals, reports, histories, and other correspondence. It addresses problems with the current fragmented and inefficient systems by allowing all relevant parties to be updated instantly in a paperless, time-saving manner. This improves patient care through seamless collaboration and eliminates issues like lost paperwork, insecure emailing of sensitive data, high costs, and "no-show" patients falling through the cracks. The founders have relevant experience and a strong team is in place to technically develop the platform according to medical privacy and legal standards.

1. Revolutionising written communication between health professionals
Anish Shah Hemal Ruparelia

2. Our Goal
Make Mediref the go-to service
for written communication
between health professionals.
(Referrals, reports, patient histories,
second opinions, review requests, CPD
events, recruitment etc.)
Bring secure, medical
correspondence to our mobile
phones.

3. Problem
No efficient tool for multidisciplinary
communication.
a. Fragmented care
b. High time/money costs
Current Solution
a. All practitioners not updated OR
b. Individual updates (Risk of duplication and
oversights)
Mediref
Multidisciplinary collaboration built into the
system. All relevant parties updated instantly
Value Proposition 1: Seamless teamwork
Patient management is increasingly
collaborative

4. Problem
Patients losing referrals
Current Solution
Admin staff (sender and recipient) waste
time organising replacements
Mediref
Patient bypassed (direct
correspondence)
Automatic back ups
Value Proposition 2: No more lost paperwork
Lost paperwork is a big cause of wasted
time in medical practices

5. Problem
Sensitive information sent via plain-text
email (insecure and illegal)
Current Solution
Convenience wins. Email remains
widely used
Mediref
Legal - NEHTA and Privacy Act
guidelines followed
Specifically designed for patient
correspondence (easy to use)
Value Proposition 3: Easier than email & legal
Plain text email is insecure. There is a
need for an easy-to-use alternative

6. Problem
High cost of communication (monetary cost and
staff time)
Current Solution
Admin staff picks up the the slack or favour
convenience (email)
Mediref
Extremely cost-effective (as low as free) and
time-saving (paperless, instant, efficient)Current communication is expensive and
time consuming
Value Proposition 4: Save time and money

7. Problem
● Referred patients don’t book
appointments
● Referring practitioner usually not aware
Current Solution
● Accumulated files of ‘no-show’ patients
● Expensive clear-out every few months
Mediref
Referrals automatically tracked:
● Pending (awaiting pt booking
● Active
● Archive (historical records on hand
whenever needed)
No-show patients generate unnecessary
admin work plus lead to lost revenue
Value Proposition 5: ‘No-show’ patients

of organisation, especially after multiple back and forth
