Get the health information you need, quickly, easily and securely

It’s not your core business to chase up medical information, so SureMed does this on your behalf, allowing you to focus on what’s important to you. With SureMed you simply identify the health information you need, and from which provider, and we take care of the collection, follow-ups and payments. SureMed’s use of high standard encryption means that consumers’ confidential information is well protected.
