EGS Health Inc., a global e-health company headquartered in Wisconsin, USA, has announced a landmark collaboration with UHealth – University of Miami Health System, South Florida’s only university-based health system and one of the world’s most respected healthcare institutions. This partnership marks a major step forward in expanding high-quality, in-person and virtual patient care across the Caribbean, ensuring citizens gain unprecedented access to internationally recognised medical expertise.

The initiative is powered through Medicas©, EGS Health’s proprietary virtual care platform. Medicas enables patients to connect instantly with doctors, laboratories, and world-class specialists at significantly lower costs compared to traditional healthcare delivery methods. Equipped with hundreds of physicians and multiple diagnostic partners, the platform is redefining accessibility and affordability for patients across multiple regions.

In Trinidad & Tobago, the collaboration was accelerated through EGS Health’s partnership with two prominent specialists—Dr. Dale Maharaj and Dr. Rodney Benjamin of the Caribbean Vein and Vascular Clinic at St. Clair Hospital—who played a key role in establishing this cross-border opportunity with UHealth. Their leadership and commitment to expanding advanced healthcare options for Caribbean citizens helped lay the foundation for this international care bridge.
