It is most often thought of as a video-first encounter; however, video collaboration is just one of many key capabilities. A comprehensive telehealth program includes other telephony and mobile health tools. So what makes telehealth successful, and what are the key benefits? To learn more, please <a href=\"https:\/\/go.ringcentral.com\/telehealth-solutions-supporting-increased-virtual-care-demand-watch_now.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">watch this informative on-demand webinar<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As providers investigate technology solutions to develop telehealth programs, these <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10 key use cases are critical to their utilization objectives and goals: <\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>1. Virtual care appointments: reduced unnecessary hospitalizations<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Video conferencing tools support the ability to scale patient capacity and safely support both at-home and in-facility patients.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>2. Mobile health capabilities: improved data access<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mobile-ready telehealth apps enable dispersed teams to collaborate and exchange ePHI across messaging, voice, fax, and video channels.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>3. Dedicated response teams: faster patient intake<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dynamic call routing capabilities enable specialized triage teams to provide advice for home-based care and assess potential inpatient care needs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>4. Remote workforce support: facility staff safety<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flexible telehealth platforms support the easy transition of facility-based staff to interim, work-from-home status during times of crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>5. Temporary treatment sites: health service continuity<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pre-staged and configured communications and collaboration systems can be efficiently deployed to ad-hoc treatment locations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>6. Fluctuating call volumes: shorter wait times<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Dynamic overflow of calls across ambulatory sites will optimize staff <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dedicated to patient-provider communication and reduce <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">abandoned calls.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>7. Patient follow-ups: faster patient response<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Voicemails that can be transcribed and read will enable faster patient callbacks and assessment turn-around times.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>8. Telehealth system monitoring: instant performance analysis<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customized dashboards provide a complete view of the system-wide quality of service and troubleshooting insights.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>9. Secure ePHI exchange: strong security compliance<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third-party security certification (e.g., HITRUST CSF) ensures that ePHI exchanges across telehealth channels\u2014voice, video, messaging, and fax\u2014is supported by a robust security risk management framework.<\/span><\/p>\n<h5><strong>10. Patient self-service: positive patient experience<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Multi-level <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ringcentral.com\/contact-center\/interactive-voice-response.html\">IVR<\/a> tools enable providers to automate patient access to up-to-date information or recorded FAQ responses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As providers continue their virtual patient engagement planning and crisis response measures, the integrated telehealth solutions and capabilities that have been described will play a critical role. Telehealth will enable providers to implement alternate systems of care that combine phone and web-based engagement with in-person care. It will also support their need to rapidly acquire, repurpose, and stage alternative patient care delivery sites with equally rapid technology intervention. <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.fcc.gov\/public\/attachments\/DOC-363498A1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Read more about the new FCC COVID-19 Telehealth Program and available provider funding<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Telehealth is a critical tool for all providers to address care coordination surge and expand access to virtual care.
