Acute Care Hospitals
Acute care hospitals are facing nursing shortages and increasing patient complexity, which means long hours for staff and providers. Telemedicine acute care specialty services bring care to any size facility, supplementing existing specialty services or providing specialty care services previously not available.
Acute care services, including infectious disease, acute nephrology, and critical care help prevent unnecessary transfers to larger health systems, rapidly bringing experts to the bedside. Outpatient specialty services are available to augment gaps in specialty coverage and keep patient care local, retaining revenue from ancillary services.
Access to specialty care improves work-life balance for local providers, bringing compassionate experts to the bedside, putting patients and their families at ease.
Patients appreciate the rapid access to specialty care in their own local hospital. Local providers appreciate the support of specialty providers and the work-life balance of telemedicine support. Hospital administrators appreciate the improved access to care, quality outcomes and retained revenues.
