Every 40 seconds, someone in the United States has a stroke, resulting in more than 140,000 deaths per year and hundreds of thousands more patients who suffer long-term disability due to delays in care or inappropriate treatment decisions. Stroke care is especially complicated in rural and remote communities, where the nearest facility could be hours away – and there’s no guarantee that an experienced stroke care team will be available to help. “Health systems simply do not have enough capacity right now to meet the demand in a timely manner, so we absolutely need to turn to telemedicine and hub-and-spoke strategies to make sure access is equitable and available to the people who need it," said Andrew Watson, MD, Senior Medical Advisor UPMC Enterprises and Senior Medical Director for UPMC Health Plan in Pennsylvania.

That moment when your colleague visiting New York City hops on the subway, looks right, and sees a sign for our health system partner NYC Health + Hospitals. This sign, in particular, is recruiting new social workers. But one thing NYC Health + Hospitals does extremely well is driving awareness of their Virtual ExpressCare program. By staying top of mind, Virtual ExpressCare is reaching people who might have called 911 or gone directly to the emergency department in non-emergency situations. Instead, they're turning to a safe, reliable, and much faster option via virtual urgent care. NYC Health + Hospitals performs over 90,000 virtual urgent care appointments annually, making an impact in reducing crowded emergency departments, lowering patient wait times, and freeing up ambulances to respond to higher acuity situations. Critical anywhere, but especially in America's largest city. Whether it's here on LinkedIn or a subway train in New York City, we love seeing the continued success of NYC Health + Hospitals as their providers work together to provide comprehensive, personalized care to all New Yorkers. #healthsystems #virtualcare #virtualurgentcare #emergencydepartments

"I sat down in a room full of eVisit customers and prospects recently trying to better understand what does work," writes Edward Marx. "Participants varied from large academic medical centers to federally qualified health centers to safety net hospitals. They were outliers, making virtual work and reaping the benefits for both patients and providers. Here is what I learned from those making virtual care work." Great to have Ed as our keynote speaker at our recent Virtual Care Roundtable. In his new article, Ed focused on five areas where health systems with high virtual care adoption differ from those returning to pre-pandemic practices. 1. Sophisticated ROI - Especially the financial impact on throughput challenges and poor experience scores 2. Clinician Champions - Finding respected clinician partners to be out in front advocating for virtual care 3. Change Management - Active participation re-enforcing messaging 4. High-leverage Workflows - "Real estate is location location location. Virtual care is workflow, workflow, workflow," write Marx. 5. Differentiation - Offering patients different options Looking forward to more events with Ed and highly recommend reading his full article on virtual care adoption (link below) #virtualcare #telehealth #digitalhealth #provideradoption #healthsystems

Pennsylvania has the third-largest rural population in the country with more than 3 million people living in rural areas. This presents major health access challenges, for example, when a patient checks into a rural hospital 2-3 hours away from a specific clinical specialist. Over the last four years, UPMC Enterprises has bridged this physical gap through its inpatient teleconsult technology. This technology enables virtual clinical specialists to efficiently consult with bedside clinicians about inpatient care across five services: stroke, neurology, critical care, psychology, and toxicology. We are thrilled to now incorporate UPMC's inpatient teleconsult technology into our Best in KLAS-winning virtual care platform. We're also honored to welcome Andrew Watson from UPMC Enterprises to our Clinical Advisory Board, providing our team and partnering health systems with ongoing technology advisory expertise. Here are a few additional highlights from our exciting new partnership with UPMC Enterprises.
