DermTRAC is a teledermatology software application that allows the patient to store clinical information on a periodic basis and forward the information to a local dermatologist for follow up medical care. A dermatologist can use DermTRAC as a tool to remotely treat follow up dermatology patients. The software provides patients with a low cost alternative to a portion of their dermatology office visits.

Prior to participation, a candidate must already be registered patient of a DermTRAC provider, a Board Certified dermatologist. Instructions will be given on taking consistent and accurate photos, how to upload photos and use DermTRAC to provide relevant clinical information for treatment. Candidates will then be evaluated by the dermatologist individually to determine appropriate participation in tele dermatology. 

Once approved by an DermTRAC provider, the patient can begin documenting progress by uploading photos, recording voice memos, and typing any clinical questions for the dermatologist.

The dermatologist will respond within 48 hours with a secure email containing a password-protected PDF of the patient’s treatment plan and prescription if needed. If the patient wishes to be seen, it can be noted in the written or voice memo to the dermatologist. The dermatologist can also advise the patient in the treatment plan to come in for a follow up visit.
