InTouch Health is pioneering Remote Presence, a new modality for physician-patient consults. Wherever access to medical expertise is limited, Remote Presence can effectively extend the physician's reach to manage patient care, thereby removing time and distance barriers. With expertise available at a moment's notice, the RP-7® allows for innovative healthcare delivery models leading to improved care, increased patient safety and satisfaction, and increased hospital revenues.
TeleStroke Networks
A major challenge confronting stroke care is the short time window available for interventional treatment. Remote Presence helps eliminate this barrier by accelerating access to stroke experts through a collaborative "hub and spoke" network of hospitals. Stroke experts from a primary or comprehensive stroke center can use Remote Presence to provide consults to other hospitals.
Critical Care Coverage
ICU morbidity, mortality, LOS and costs are greatly reduced when critical care is led by a board certified intensivist. Since most hospitals cannot attract enough intensivists to staff their ICU's, Remote Presence is a viable extender of intensivist ICU presence. Academic, community, rural and critical access hospitals have implemented Remote Presence solutions to achieve improved clinical and financial outcomes.
Multi-Specialty Outreach
Tertiary centers deploy Remote Presence networks to extend physician expertise (cardiology, pediatrics, neonatology, neurosciences, trauma, general surgery and other disciplines) for ED call panel coverage and care management in surrounding hospitals. This can optimize patient transfers, improve ED throughput and redefine regionalized healthcare delivery.
Hospital Capacity Management
Physicians typically round on their hospitalized patients once daily. Through Remote Presence, doctors can perform night and weekend rounds from the home, clinic or office. These consults have resulted in improved patient and family satisfaction, and are an effective tool to advance the care management process resulting in earlier patient discharges.
Specialty Training & Collaboration
Expert physician training and collaboration in new or complex procedures can be enabled with Remote Presence. Special lectures featuring live surgery, procedure techniques and best practices can be shared.
