As a private, not-for-profit community health system serving 17 counties in Florida and across state lines into Georgia, Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare's telehealth initiatives has delivered value in a variety of notable ways. Tallahassee and it's surrounding regions include a major metropolitan area, with several outlying a rural populations who often have very limited access to medical resources and care service lines within the area.

 

In response to this need, Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare's telehealth program is now expanding behavioral health services to these rural communities, formulating new partnerships with rural providers to expand coverage of lives, and providing both specialist and emergency consults that are driving down costs exponentially across the enterprise.

 

In this dynamic talk, Lauren Faison, Director of the Telehealth service line at Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare delivers a detailed account of their success story. Hear about what is on the horizon to expand this line and how they are expanding remote monitoring technologies to deliver even greater value to their patients.
