Product Capabilities

As part of an embedded experience within Epic and Oracle Cerner, launch virtual encounters directly within the EHR or Microsoft Teams. Teladoc Health allows providers to invite an interpreter during a live encounter with availability in 60 second or less for over 250 languages, including ASL. Invite additional participants, such as family members, to the visit with no app required.

Easily capture new patients or connect with existing ones and seamlessly route them to the appropriate care team using the same automated process regardless of if the patient is in the ED, clinic, or at home. Customize any patient workflow across any acuity level or location with the ability to capture valuable data, including demographics, forms and questionnaires, surveys, consent forms, real-time eligibility verification, payment collection, scheduling, single sign-on and EHR integration.

Built to mimic in-person care—using the latest video and audio technology compatible with diagnostic peripherals—Teladoc Health can bring care wherever patients are, with devices and software that work in hospitals, clinics and patients’ homes. 24/7 technical support, identity management and redundant global connectivity ensures high-resiliency and two-way integration puts data and patient information at clinician’s fingertips with HL7 integration, scheduling, eligibility confirmation, patient surveys, payments and digital signature.

Diagnosis specific templates such as stroke and behavioral health, contain data elements that can be imported through an EHR integration, passed through the Intake module check-in process, or entered manually by a clinical user. Calculators, scales, and helpful tools are incorporated to help providers track diagnosis and treatment options while fully documenting the clinical interaction.  Once documentation is complete, a consult note can be generated and electronically signed, providing a record of interaction that can be distributed to 3rd party systems through integration. 

As the only Telehealth Managed Service Provider, our service and support infrastructure provide clients with 24/7 or 12/7 proactive monitoring options to ensure their programs are always up and running.

Teladoc Health’s analytics module helps telehealth administrators see and understand data. Our visual analytics platform transforms the way people use data to solve problems and become a more data-driven virtual care program. The analytics module provides visual analytics and dashboards to enable users to spot patterns and trends quickly.

Behavioral health workflows can be embedded within EDs, inpatient care and psychiatric units through timely specialist consults. Diagnosis specific templates like those for behavioral health, contain data elements that can be imported through an EHR integration, passed through the Intake module check-in process, or entered manually by a clinical user.

By extending the reach of your providers to more locations, mental health patients can be treated in any care location. Bring mental health services to primary or urgent care clinics and the home, enabling remote access at the point of care – scheduled or on-demand. Additionally, support your inpatient and emergent lines with access to remote mental health specialists in acute and emergent situations. Additionally, this capability allows organizations to facilitate care coordination between non-owned medical groups, build virtual second opinion pathways, enhance same-day specialty referrals, and augment business cases for servicing patients in place.  

Designed for a multitude of use cases, healthcare environments and budgets, our telehealth devices connect patients and providers to ensure easy access to high-quality virtual care. Built to complement in-person care—using the latest video and audio technology compatible with diagnostic peripherals—Teladoc Health can bring care wherever patients are, with devices and software that work in hospitals, clinics and patients’ homes.

Teladoc Health enables integrated virtual care for hospitals and health systems to transform care delivery in the hospital, while also extending their influence beyond its walls. This allows hospitals and health systems to address workforce challenges, increase access to services, improve care coordination and attract new patients – all through an enterprise platform solution that integrates with your existing investments.

Use Cases

Description:

98point6 delivers a secure, interoperable and connected end-user experience so that patients have an established continuum of care between AVIA, 98point6 and any other benefits or providers.

Pediatric use cases:

98point6 offers pediatric care for children who are older than 1 (>12 months) until adulthood (typically age 18 years in most states).

Care for children ages 1-17 years old must be requested by a parent or legal guardian

To request care for a child, a covered adult would begin a visit as they normally would. A list of benefit-enrolled dependents ages 1-17 will appear. They will then select who they are seeking care for, and complete the child’s profile. 

Next, the Automated Assistant will gather information about the child’s symptoms, then will deliver the information to one of 98point6’s board-certified physicians. The physician will have a text-based conversation with the parent/guardian about the child’s symptoms, using audio, video or photos if clinically needed. For younger children (i.e., under age 5), the physician will be more likely to request a video encounter.



Users:

Patients. 98point6 delivers a secure, interoperable and connected end-user experience so that patients have an established continuum of care between AVIA, 98point6 and any other benefits or providers.

Description:

Teladoc Health enables health systems to offer virtual care services across the care continuum – from ambulatory care to emergent care to inpatient care, and even care in the home.

Inpatient Care

Partnering with Teladoc Health empowers hospitals to deliver an intuitive, seamless new standard of inpatient care. Hybrid care models – those that leverage both in-person and virtual care when appropriate – allow hospitals and health systems to build more robust care teams around every patient, allowing bedside staff to focus on the most critical patient needs.

  • Expand capacity and capabilities: Increase staff-to-patient ratios, augment staff coverage during volume surges, reduce burnout and expand staff training opportunities. Specialists can virtually consult during inpatient emergency situations and intensive-care locations, adding expertise and guidance for in-person staff. 
  • Increase satisfaction: Clinicians and staff appreciate the convenience, added support and improved efficiency. Patients appreciate the simplicity, ease, safety and added attention that comes from a hybrid care experience. 
  • Drive financial stability: An enterprise-wide approach to virtual care can help address some of the core issues that challenge financial stability. Maximize the value of your existing digital investments and drive operational efficiencies and cost-savings at scale.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Client Integration: 98point6 is a consultative technology partner. We do more than just connect a supply of doctors to patients with demand. Working closely with the Client we can help their virtual care strategy come to life by connecting their entire ecosystem of benefits. On the same platform with which they provide digital primary care, our 98point6 physicians direct patients to in-network providers and additional benefits in-visit and in the Care Plan they receive post-visit, increasing utilization and cost-savings and ensuring patients get the right care at the right time.

  1. Access: 98point6 provides on-demand 24/7 access to digital primary care in all 50 states plus D.C. By providing text-based care, 98point6 connects patients to high-quality care in their preferred modality—as evidenced by utilization rates that are 8x greater than our client's previous virtual medicine solution. With no appointments needed members can start a secure visit immediately from the privacy of their smartphone or tablet anytime, anywhere. 98point6 caan also increase overall patient access to care by serving as an extension of a health system’s provider network, covering care needs when PCPs are unavailable (evenings/weekend/holidays) or if patient panels are full.
  2.  Quality: By leveraging deep technology and the expertise of board-certified physicians who are exclusively employed by 98point6, we deliver a standard of care on par with what a patient would receive in a brick-and-mortar setting. Our physicians practice 100% evidence-based medicine supported by automated practice standards that ensure consistency of care. Our technology allows our physicians to spend more time diagnosing and treating, answering medical questions and following up with members.
  3. Affordability: Our technology drives efficiencies and allows us to deliver high-quality care at a lower price point than has ever been done before. Pairing AI and machine learning with the expertise of our board-certified physicians optimizes the medical visit. As we change the cost-of-care, our pricing model passes the savings on to our clients and patients.


Differentiators vs Competitors:

In a market rich with competitor mergers and acquisitions of point solutions to expand scope of care, 98point6 is developing our product and platform to meet these patient needs through a single platform (e.g., our recently launched fully integrated behavioral health offering). 


Our overarching strategy is to pair technology with employed physicians to create automated, evidence-based care pathways with additional integrations that connect patients with in-network providers and benefits at the appropriate time. Our roadmap demonstrates our commitment to maintaining high quality patient care, improving physician and patient experience and strengthening our ability to offer seamless, strategic connections to a patient’s entire suite of health resources.

  1. Traditional Telemedicine: 98point6 leads with text first but also offers video and voice if needed to ensure patients can access care in their preferred modality. Our 24/7 on-demand service and ability to integrate with a client’s full ecosystem of benefits means we meet patients where they are, leading to much higher engagement and improved patient outcomes. 98point6 is also differentiated from many traditional telemedicine providers in that our clinic is staffed by board-certified physicians who are employees of 98point6. 98point6 physicians must meet our stringent hiring practices, our NCQA-based credentialing standards and undergo extensive onboarding and ongoing training. 98point6 physicians play a critical role in our product and service design, meet our unique core values requirements and hold an equity position in the company.
  2.  Symptom Checkers: These solutions are not user-friendly and often create more worry for patients with a health concern. Symptom checkers also require additional steps to get care, creating more barriers to entry. With 98point6, accessing care from a board-certified physician who can diagnose, treat and prescribe is just as simple and affordable as Googling your symptoms. We leverage our UX design and research capabilities to deliver the highest usability bar helping ensure repeat use.
  3. Navigation Platforms: in most cases, for optimal outcomes, patients should start their care journey with a primary care provider. With 98point6 it's easy for patients to start a visit at any time and our physicians can quickly resolve their concern or navigate members to the most appropriate resources. We're not navigating to a specialist first based on the chief complaint, rather our physicians can intelligently determine whether a specialist visit is required.



Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Our technology delivers layers of value to the virtual encounter to enable better team collaboration and patient engagement across a full range of care settings; supports consumer and care team experience, configurable intake, connects to devices, hybrid care and provides robust reporting, enhanced collaboration, along with embedded audio/video within EHRs.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

With 20+ years of experience founding and leading the virtual care segment, our technology and clinical expertise provide greater access to a wide range of physical and mental healthcare services; empower patients and providers with insights that inspire and accelerate better health decisions; and foster clinical collaboration that leads to higher quality of care. 

Teladoc Health offers expert consultant services to our health system partners, bringing best practices to help accelerate your transformation. Supporting hospitals and health systems with implementation, customized analytics and technical assistance enables our partners to make the most out of their investments. 

As the only Telehealth Managed Service Provider, our service and support infrastructure provides clients with 24/7 or 12/7 proactive monitoring options to ensure programs are always up and running.
