CEFALY Technology Partners with AZOVA Telemedicine Platform for Virtual Migraine Treatment Prescriptions

NEW YORK, June 8, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- CEFALY, the first device of its kind to receive FDA medical clearance for migraine headaches, is now expanding access to its prescribed CEFALY DUAL migraine treatment device through a new partnership announced today with AZOVA 's Collaborative Clinical Care Platform™.

AZOVA enables patients anywhere across the country to get an online visit with a healthcare provider and a prescription to order the CEFALY DUAL and get it delivered to their front door.

"We are excited to provide a way for people to find quality care and relief quickly, particularly  given the current environment and the added complications in seeking in-person medical care,"  said Jennifer Trainor-McDermott, CEO with CEFALY Technology. This new telemedicine partnership affords patients same-day virtual medical appointments.

Patients may access their free eVisit with a healthcare provider on AZOVA to see if they are a good candidate to use the CEFALY DUAL device here; unless where prohibited by law.

If it's deemed that a patient could benefit from a CEFALY DUAL device, the patient's online healthcare provider will send the prescription directly to CEFALY, eliminating a time-consuming step in the customer process. The patient would then only need to order the device on the CEFALY website and have it shipped to their front door.

"We're happy to help people with migraines access effective treatments more quickly and conveniently from the comfort of their homes," said Cheryl Lee Eberting, MD, CEO and founder of AZOVA.
