The Clinic by Cleveland Clinic, a virtual second opinion service, is expanding its licensure to thousands of additional providers across the nation.
The Clinic partnered with credentialing company Baton Health to grow its provider licenses to more than 10,000, spanning the entire country. The Clinic, a joint venture between Cleveland Clinic and telehealth company Amwell, offers quick access to physicians and subspecialists for virtual second opinions.
“Licensing and maintaining the status of thousands of providers in multiple states is no small feat, which is why some virtual providers forego this step,” said Nikhyl Jhangiani, head of business operations at The Clinic, in a May news release. “Our commitment to our patients — providing them the highest quality clinical perspectives — means we must always have compliance front and center in our approach.”
