In a recent Becker’s HEALTH IT article, “How teleneurology is expanding access and easing the neurologist shortage” Annie Tsui, D.O., chief medical officer of neurology at Access TeleCare, shared how teleNeurology helps hospitals expand access to neurology care when on-site coverage is limited. She explained how virtual neurology support can help facilities care for patients across the continuum, from acute stroke care and inpatient consults to EEG reads and outpatient follow-up.
The article also outlines the broader value for hospitals and patients. TeleNeurology can help patients get specialty care more quickly and closer to home, while giving local clinicians added support and reducing unnecessary transfers. Becker’s also highlighted outcome data showing lower transfer rates, stronger stroke performance, and improved revenue for partner hospitals.
