"We envision a world where being healthy doesn’t mean spending your salary towards insurance and health clinics. We’re surrounded by portable computing devices with the power to measure, monitor, and communicate. These same tools can become cost effective devices to monitor subtle changes in your body’s chemistry. While we may not reach the goal of your tablet computer becoming your personal on-call physician by 2015, by linking technologies that are currently available today we will come very close to this vision. Three years from now you’ll be able to utilize the same device that you send email and Twitter messages on to monitor how well the natural medicine you took this morning is bringing your body back to a healthy alignment. If that sounds surprising, remember that all your body is to any diagnostic device is a series of electrical impulses. These impulses are then calculated in a small computer and then given to a physician to interpret. This data doesn’t need to be isolated in several small devices and then placed on a paper chart. Instead, imagine if the electrical imprint of your body was available as an anonymous flow of energy in the Internet cloud. Your body could then be compared to billions of other bodies experiencing similar symptoms. This could then be compared and contrasted with thousands of treatment options and correlated with an infinite number of environmental factors to determine the best natural medicine for you."

Organic medicine goes "high" tech with medical marijuana, natural herbs, and Internet technology.
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- BG Medical Technologies, Inc. (OTC:RIGH) is set to engage an $11 billion dollar tele-healthcare market in addition to the projected $14 billion dollar medical marijuana market, with Internet and smartphone applications to support growing trends of natural medicine and wellness care.
Healthcare costs in the United States are some of the highest in the world leaving many Americans uninsured, under-insured, or living in communities without access to affordable care. This problem worsens as US healthcare costs continue to rise each year. For those who can afford healthcare, new problems are introduced. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that half of all Americans will be diagnosed with a mental illness during their lifetime. Celebrity prescription drug deaths dominate media headlines, and pharmaceutical-related drug deaths now outnumber traffic fatalities in the United States.
BG Medical Technologies is introducing safe and affordable alternatives to traditional healthcare with Internet-based applications that support nutraceutical and medical marijuana treatments. Recently the company announced development of a diagnostic device that is designed to provide physicians with data to chart medical marijuana effectiveness over time. These systems will be made available to marijuana-recommending doctors and will include the ability to instantly link diagnostic data to a remote network of naturopathy doctors for further on-site and remote patient care. Patients will be apprised of additional diagnostic findings and be given the option to pursue adjunct natural therapies in addition to medical marijuana treatments.
"We've all had the experience of having our car serviced for a noticeable problem only to learn that once the mechanic examined under the hood, more parts were wearing out that endangered our safety," stated Angel Stanz, CEO. "We are making this type of preventative maintenance available to everyone. This is expected to save tens of thousands of dollars in out-of-pocket healthcare expenses per patient."
BG Medical is designing these systems to reduce patient costs while providing additional shared revenue to participating medical marijuana doctors, caregivers, and licensed naturopath physicians. More information on how this technology will interact with patients and doctors can be found in the company's articles section of their corporate website.

BG Medical Technologies combines laboratory research, Internet cloud technologies, and medical diagnostics for a data-based approach to medical marijuana treatment programs.
LOS ANGELES, Feb. 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- BG Medical Technologies (OTC: RIGH) has announced development of a USB-enabled diagnostic support device that will facilitate patients suffering from critical illnesses such as cancer, to match the most effective plant variants for physician-recommended medical marijuana treatments. The device will collect patient data in a non-invasive manner by detecting subtle shifts in the patient's physiology and then upload encrypted data to HIPAA-compliant servers for further analysis and physician review. Physicians will interact with patients and data history through a bundled video conferencing application. This will offer patients the ability to discreetly pursue medical marijuana treatment from the privacy of their home. For states with telemedicine restrictions, services will be made available for use within physician offices. This system also seeks to improve medical marijuana treatment programs by involving physicians more than once per year to better evaluate treatment effectiveness and applicability.
The diagnostic support system works in tandem with BG Medical's BudGenius.com laboratory research and ongoing data collection to identify marijuana strains that present the most beneficial ratios of medicinal compounds that are likely to best serve the patient's needs. Medicine locator services will also be used to locate cannabis strains currently available within the patient's travel radius. BudGenius services will continue to be expanded with new features to support the diagnostic system development, and will be further enhanced with new technology partnerships. BG Medical has stated that this announcement fulfills another component of their "natural medicine trifecta", an empirical data approach to administering natural medical marijuana treatments, as detailed in their product strategy guide.
"While our competitors are seeking to create pharmaceuticals that divide and isolate the helpful compounds in cannabis, we will continue to focus on systems that support treatments with organically developed medicines that are genetically predisposed to treat specific ailments in their natural form," adds Angel Stanz, CEO. "In the shadow of a failed healthcare system rife with expensive and toxic treatments, we believe the convergence of nature and Internet technologies will form the future of affordable preventative and curative medicine."
The USB hardware device is based upon technologies previously authorized by the FDA to enter clinical trials for determining its effectiveness in breast cancer diagnosis. BG Medical Technologies will seek FDA approval of the final hardware implementation as a diagnostic support device.
