RemoteMD setting up medical lab here to serve oil and gas workers

Even as it expands its services and has applied for permission from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to set up a medical lab in Kingston, Georgetown, United States-headquartered remote medical services provider, RemoteMD, has come under fire for the disparity in pay for locals.

The EPA on Tuesday notified that filed under Shondell Reid, Remote MD Services Guyana Inc. had applied for the establishment of a medical laboratory and that the project is exempt from having to carry out an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA).

The Stabroek News reached out to RemoteMD though email and telephone to no avail.
