Insite Security Partners With WorldClinic to Offer Global Medical Support to Clients

July 8, 2009

NEW YORK, July 8 /PRNewswire/ — Insite Security Inc. and WorldClinic have partnered to create a revolutionary approach to medical care and security for large companies and high net worth individuals and families.

Founded by former Secret Service agent and litigator Christopher Falkenberg, Insite Security is a full-service security and risk management agency for corporations and high net worth individuals.

The new offering, called P.A.C.T. — Preparedness, Avoidance, Communications and Training — is the first service that combines the comprehensive disciplines of emergency medicine, through WorldClinic, with physical security and risk management, through Insite Security.

“Globalization has made international travel for business and leisure an everyday occurrence. Travel itself has become a risk factor that needs to be prepared for and mitigated against,” said Christopher Falkenberg, Founder and President of Insite Security. “We have been providing on-the-ground advance and security for dozens of corporations and high net worth individuals and families. By offering a complete medical solution to our clients, we provide added peace of mind in a challenging and dangerous world.”

Dr. Daniel J. Carlin, CEO, WorldClinic added, “The chance of a catastrophic event happening in modern life is much higher than just 10 years ago. Be it the threat of a pandemic like the H1N1 virus, which we have not seen the last of, or a medical emergency where your family is traveling abroad and in need of urgent medical treatment in a remote location, WorldClinic is equipped to address all scenarios.”

WorldClinic, founded by Dr. Carlin, provides 24/7 personal telemedical care and consultation, detailed destination medical research, portable prescription medical kits, a 24/7 electronic medical record archive and rapid physician-to-physician second-opinion referrals for any serious or complex illness.

Mr. Falkenberg and Dr. Carlin partnered to offer one dedicated solution focused on corporations and high net worth families.

“Never before has there been such a need for a comprehensive collaboration of medical preparedness and risk management,” said Mr. Falkenberg. “When people think of security, rarely do they consider medical contingency planning, which is essential. For families and executives who are traveling the world, there are many locations where 9-1-1 simply won’t help.”

WorldClinic consists of a multi-specialty physician group which, though anchored in the specialty of emergency medicine, includes virtually all major medical specialties including pediatrics, cardiology and trauma. The physician group is closely supported by an unusually diverse support staff consisting of emergency medical personnel, informatics specialists and telemedical technology experts. The company maintains and operates a proprietary network of over 4,000 U.S. trained board certified physicians who have relocated outside the USA. The integration of WorldClinic’s physician “home team” with this private physician network enables WorldClinic to offer their clients an immediately available personal physician who can provide a complete care solution regardless of location or circumstance.

“It’s our job to know the best cardiologist in Jakarta; where the closest cardiac catheterization lab is in Beijing and how to evacuate a patient with an open ankle fracture in the Andes,” continued Dr. Carlin. “But combine that service with advance travel investigation and risk management offered by Insite, and you have a very complete emergency preparedness plan.”
