About

The Company

UTMHealthcare, LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of UThisMe, LLC, which was formed in 2012 by three entrepreneurs in upstate New York: Seth Lachterman, Cameron Melville, and the late David Ackerman. They envisioned building applications around new encryption technology. Using patented technology, UTMHealthcare enables clinicians and case managers to oversee patient care. Patients require only a smartphone and peripheral devices to take key readings and keep their medical team fully up-to-date on their status, thereby enabling hospital discharges and decreasing readmissions.
