Ex-Apple CEO adds MDLive stake to health-technology investments

San Francisco

FORMER Apple chief executive John Sculley is betting that people will increasingly turn to the Internet for confidential counselling and routine medical care.

He has an undisclosed stake and sits on the board of directors of Florida-based MDLive, a company that provides patients with remote access to a licensed physician. Mr Sculley said that he sees telemedicine and online mental health services "going mainstream" in coming years.
