Virtual Private Electronic Records Search (ViPER) Transfer Network - We are developing a security engine for HIPAA compliant search and transfer of  electronic medical records (Screenshot). Included are data conversion utilities,  validation systems and audit features to allow users carefully controlled, monitored access to secure member networks and Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs). The system will allow the secure exchange and transfer of patient data between disparate healthcare entities and data platforms by offering each provider a data portal and 3rd party management of searches and all transaction. As a service acting as a 3rd party transfer agent, RTC will ask each pre-validated party (manually or electronically) two basic questions A) What records do you have and under which conditions are you willing to share them, or 2) What records do you seek and what authority do you have to receive them. RTC's service  will become a record locator service and a clearing house for both senders and receivers. RTC has a development and application use license to all non-profit applications of this patent pending technology. Additionally, RTC has the right to sublicense the technology and the applications to other non-profits or organizations who work to support constituents similar to our own.

Personal Health Record (PHR) Software (Download Brochure) - RTC is developing the first secure, fully customizable family health record database that is controlled entirely by the patient and available on-demand to selected healthcare providers. How does it work? The patient enters the data they consider important – Health History, Cardiologist’s name, address and phone, types of medications, allergies, etc. into a secure database. They can even upload images such as their picture and/or EKG. The website and a read-only password are carried by the patient in their wallet or on a sticker on their license. At the Patient’s option, Healthcare professionals who are members of approved networks such as Regional Health Information Organizations (RHIOs) or their insurance company may also be granted access for HIPAA compliant review or inclusion as part of the patient's parent EHR that may be held by their insurance company. RTC has a development and application use license to all non-profit applications of this patent pending technology. Additionally, RTC has the right to sublicense this technology and the applications to other non-profits or organizations who work to support constituents similar to our own.

Telemedicine Consulting and Network Development - We assist state and local healthcare organizations in the development and deployment of telemedicine systems and networks. We can assist with grant writing, resource planning, network planning, hardware and software selection, deployment and implementation of telemedicine systems.

Indian Needs Assessment - We are meeting with tribal representatives in several Southeastern
states to assess and prioritize needs and logistical issues where telemedicine and telehealth
could provide the most impact. Grant writing partnerships and technology sharing with multiple
entities is likely.

Rural Community Needs Assessment - We are meeting with county and government health
officials to identify key areas of weakness in existing services in which Telemedicine and
Telehealth could be beneficial in both expanding coverage areas and cost savings in existing
areas. Reductions of travel time and expenses is the primary factor under consideration.
Remote monitoring of high risk medical patients and social services applications are also being
considered.

Indigent Care Needs Assessment - We are currently considering a telemedicine installation
at a senior care, HUD apartment building. Several different locations are being reviewed.

Further Development of the Board of Directors - We are searching for key business and medical professionals to join our board of directors.
