MCMS has partnered with the VA since 2011, and it now offers an expanded suite of telehealth solutions, including a portfolio of patient engagement platforms and a library of disease management protocols.
The new telehealth suite focuses on complex and chronic patients, allowing them to interact with VA providers and use integrated diagnostic devices. The suite also offers a daily health check, which includes condition education and clinical question sets. Information patients submit is aggregated and organized through MCMS’ web-based clinician software, providing clinicians a comprehensive view of their patient population.
“We are honored to continue our partnership with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs to provide telehealth technology and solutions to veteran patients,” said Sheri Dodd, vice president and general manager at Medtronic Care Management Services. “Our expanded offering is designed to provide more patient choice and flexibility to better meet individual health needs. We continue to deliver on our commitment to the VA, and are excited to start doing so under the terms of this new Home Telehealth contract.”
