Hospitals today face dual pressures: deliver faster, higher-quality care and strengthen financial performance. For those managing high volumes of neurology patients — stroke, seizures, migraines, and more — that challenge grows even steeper. That’s where Access TeleCare’s teleNeurology services come in. We work with teams to solve their clinical coverage gaps and produce measurable returns on investment.
This means we’re doing more than delivering remote consults.
We resource expert hospital teams with a model that delivers 24/7 access to board-certified neurologists while reducing the burden on in-house staff, eliminating unnecessary transfers, and increasing care complexity retained on-site. The result? Stronger margins, faster throughput, and improved patient outcomes.
A Look at the Numbers
Across the country, Access TeleCare’s teleNeurology programs deliver real financial and clinical wins:
- Six hospitals in Tennessee saw a nearly $7 million increase in neurology revenue from all payers after implementing a teleNeurohospitalist program. Transfers were cut by 80 percent.
- One regional health system increased revenue 300 percent after introducing teleStroke coverage and an additional 130 percent after adding teleNeurohospitalist coverage.
Why the ROI is Real
The financial gains are directly tied to how our model works:
- Around-the-clock specialist access means more timely consults, especially for high-value stroke and seizure cases.
- Fewer outbound transfers. Keep patients local for a better experience, better outcomes, and the ability to keep that revenue in-house.
- Ability to support patients with higher acuity conditions. High-quality specialty care leads to a higher CMI and a higher average revenue per patient.
- Stronger care transitions from the inpatient setting to rehabilitation or outpatient neurology ensure downstream revenue capture.
Hospitals are no longer forced to choose between access and economics. TeleNeurology makes both possible.
The Bottom Line
TeleNeurology isn’t a Band-Aid. It’s a long-term, financially viable strategy to build neurology programs that deliver high-value care without overextending existing teams. Our partners see improved CMI, fewer missed consults, higher throughput, a better patient experience, and sustainable growth in neurology-related revenue.
With 24/7 stroke response, neurohospitalist coverage, teleNeurosurgery consultations, EEG interpretation, and post-acute support, Access TeleCare helps hospitals take on more—and perform better.
