Here are five takeaways:
1. The company’s digital paper involves a custom link on a hospital desktop to request a neurology or neurosurgery consultation.
2. Once requested, a form is electronically submitted to Net Medical’s call center. The consult is expedited by notifying the telemedicine team and finding the appropriate provider.
3. The Building Blocks technology is designed to eliminate the time-consuming process of nurses calling for consultations and then retyping the information to physicians in emergency situations.
4. Telemed Building Blocks will be implemented in all University of New Mexico ACCESS grant hospitals using Net Medical telemedicine technology.
“The quicker a hospital orders a teleneuro consult for a patient, the faster one of our providers can begin offering expert advice to attending doctors in emergency room situations,” said Dick Govatski, Net Medical Xpress CEO.
