These carts are utilised in 16 locations across the state in the rural virtual care network in which Wellstar MCG Health provides tele-ER and Critical Care consultative services to rural hospitals, school systems in which the organisation provides school-based behavioural health and primary care services. Additionally, they provide tele-hospitalist services to Warm Springs Rehabilitation Hospital for their long-term acute care facility and inpatient rehab facility, and multiple specialty-based clinics in Georgia.
“ The partnership with AmWell has strengthened Wellstar MCG Health to be a leader in the market for telehealth offerings,” Dr Lyon concludes.“ We value the relationship with AmWell as they are very open to suggestions and feedback, and work to ensure our strategies align not only to achieve Wellstar MCG Health’ s goals, but focusing on ways to improve overall health outcome and improving patient and provider satisfaction.”
