eMed-ID, the world’s first medical identification franchise, announced today the launch of its low-cost, home-based franchise concept that provides a personal USB device to consumers containing their comprehensive medical history. eMed-ID is a simple way for consumers to document their private medical history on an easy-to-carry or wearable USB device. Using eMed-ID’s proprietary software, the consumer’s medical history can then be easily shared with a doctor, pharmacist or paramedic in lieu of filling out complicated medical forms.
eMed-ID represents a prime franchise opportunity given the current economic conditions by providing interested franchisees and Area Directors with a low-cost of entry. The company is currently offering qualified candidates a business opportunity with a total investment of less than $10,000. Three-year term financing is being offered to qualified candidates for approximately $38 a week. Area Directorships are also available for $29,950 to those interested in recruiting franchisees and owning a protected territory of 200,000 residents. In addition, the franchise provides Veterans a $2,450 discount and a three percent reduction on financing interest.
The company plans to recruit 20 Area Directors, representing more than 400 eMed-ID franchises throughout the country in 2009, with 1,800 franchises planned in Florida including 300 in Miami-Dade County alone.
