Philosophy and Mission
Our mission is to increase patient access to YOUR medical care and human services and increase YOUR productivity through the use of telehealth and group learning/service delivery.
We believe telemedicine is best deployed at the local community level, building upon existing community resources and referral relationships.
We believe that in this way that telemedicine will not disrupt or undermine the current community service network. But rather, help providers and organizations to work together to best serve the community.
We believe that shared medical or human services appointments can help to care for more people with current resources and help clinics and agencies cope with reduced funding or re-imbursement from government and insurance.
