The telehealth company Tyto Care provides handheld remote examination devices to conduct remote diagnostic evaluations. A provider or patient can use the device to capture ear, throat or heart data, among other information, to share with a physician.
Tyto Care exams can be performed during a real-time video-consultation or forwarded to a physician prior to a telehealth session. Physicians at a MCHS facility can also use Tyto Care technology to capture and deliver patient data off-site for a second opinion.
