TriageLogic announces a free 30-day trial of their telephone triage software for medical organizations, MyTriageChecklistTM. This software is web-based, and it includes triage protocols developed by Dr.Schmitt and Dr.Thompson for pediatrics and adult patients respectively.
Putting remote triage nurses in conjunction with telehealth doctor’s visits can provide a seamless remote experience for patients. Triage nurses can collect the pertinent information, educate the patient for the telehealth visit, and set up a telehealth visit on behalf of the doctor.
Understanding your patients and the environment around them is vital to the success of a practice or healthcare organization. Having software that can effortlessly gather data and statistics is valuable for maintaining proper patient care and creating service offerings to best serve your communities.
Triage levels indicate the appropriate level of care for each patient depending on the symptoms they are experiencing and their medical history. Determining the appropriate triage level in a quick, effective manor is critical for patient safety, peace of mind, and cost-effective care.
Doctors Schmitt and Thompson have created a standardized set of questions and dispositions based on patient symptoms to ensure that nurses give the same, high-quality standard of care every time a patient calls.
Dr. Ravi Raheja, medical director and CTO of TriageLogic, teamed up with Spry Health to talk about monitoring at-risk patients during the COVID-19 pandemic on April 10th, 2020. The group discussed options for remote patient care and telehealth solutions to help patients virtually.
