Telehealth has enabled better care coordination among healthcare providers, especially for children with complex medical needs. Specialists can now collaborate with primary care physicians and other healthcare providers to provide comprehensive care to pediatric patients.
A VCP allows pediatric providers and care teams to effectively collaborate on a child’s care by giving them access to the information they need—within a structured clinical workflow—at the moment it’s needed.
While the challenges aren’t going away any time soon, there are steps pediatric hospitals can take to improve operational efficiencies, lower costs, and enhance patient care. One of the most effective is to leverage video solutions throughout the hospital.
As provider organizations struggle to adapt to our “new normal,” they need to take stock of all the ways telehealth can help in this endeavor. Implementing a virtual care platform (VCP) can help.
However, like remote work, the demand for virtual care solution technology has not diminished. Now that people have experienced the benefits and convenience that virtual care services offer, more people are choosing it as their preferred care method.
The challenges of care collaboration and access to information is especially difficult for clinicians providing virtual care to patients located at home or in other care settings. There must be a better way, and there is. It’s called a virtual health platform.
What clinicians need is a way to seamlessly access data through a single system—a virtual care platform—where clinical workflows are enhanced through greater efficiencies.
