Hospitals everywhere are trying to solve the same problem: how to maintain reliable neurological coverage when staffing is stretched thin and after-hours gaps are widening. Neurologists are in short supply, burnout is high, and even well-staffed hospitals struggle to provide consistent coverage around the clock. The result is a familiar pattern: delayed EEG reads, stalled care plans, increased transfers, and overnight slowdowns that spill into the next day.
The challenge isn’t a lack of clinical expertise. It’s the inability to sustain EEG interpretation expertise 24/7 without adding headcount hospitals simply don’t have.
TeleEEG changes that reality.
Access TeleCare’s teleEEG program enables hospitals to build a true 24/7 neurological readiness model without hiring additional neurologists or relying on inconsistent call schedules. Our program delivers immediate access to routine and STAT EEG interpretation, continuous monitoring, so hospitals never face the operational risk of gaps in coverage.
For overextended teams, the impact is immediate. Overnight and weekend cases move forward instead of waiting for the next available neurologist. ICU and ED clinicians gain access to timely EEG reads that help them triage quickly and confidently. And inpatient floors avoid the diagnostic delays that often extend length of stay or lead to unnecessary transfers.
“Hospitals are being asked to do more with fewer specialists, and that pressure isn’t easing,” said Joshua DeTillio, CEO of Access TeleCare. “TeleEEG gives hospitals the ability to maintain reliable neurological coverage 24/7 without adding staff or compromising care. It’s a scalable way to strengthen readiness in an environment where neurology resources are increasingly limited.”
Predictable turnaround times reinforce this readiness model. Routine inpatient EEGs are read within 24 hours, STAT spot EEGs within two hours, and STAT continuous monitoring within four. With coverage across all inpatient settings, from ED to ICU to Med/Surg, hospitals gain dependable neurological support that blends seamlessly into existing workflows.
“When teams know they can rely on timely EEG interpretation at any hour, their entire approach to neurological care changes,” said Annie Tsui, D.O., chief medical officer, Neurology. “It reduces stress on clinicians, improves speed to diagnosis, and removes the staffing strain that comes with maintaining around-the-clock coverage. TeleEEG makes high-quality neurological support sustainable.”
The result is a neurological readiness model that improves patient care while reducing demand on on-site teams. Hospitals strengthen their ability to respond to seizure-related emergencies, initiate care sooner, and keep patients in-house, all without adding FTEs or expanding on-call rotations.
In a climate where staffing shortages and burnout threaten the consistency of neurological services, teleEEG provides a practical, scalable path forward. It gives hospitals continuous access to teleneurology expertise, stabilizes clinical workflows, and supports a level of readiness that would otherwise be out of reach.
