Electronic Medical Mobile Assistant (EMMA™)

🔹 1. Inpatient Specialty Consults (Medical-Surgical, ICU, Telemetry)

Enable real-time, bedside consultations with remote specialists (e.g., cardiology, neurology, infectious disease, nephrology). Reduces transfer rates and delays in care for hospitals with limited onsite specialty coverage.

⸻

🔹 2. Emergency Department Support

Facilitates rapid specialty input for critical ED patients—especially in stroke, chest pain, sepsis, or trauma cases—when timing is everything. EMMA enables remote specialists to assess, guide management, and initiate transfers only when necessary.

⸻

🔹 3. Nighttime & Weekend Coverage

Provides hospitals with immediate physician access during off-hours (nights/weekends) when onsite staffing is minimal or non-existent. Supports hospitalists, nocturnists, and cross-coverage teams remotely.

⸻

🔹 4. Rural & Critical Access Hospital Support

Closes the care gap by bringing advanced clinical expertise to remote locations where specialists are unavailable. Helps keep care local, avoid unnecessary transfers, and generate new revenue streams for small hospitals.

⸻

🔹 5. Post-Acute Care and Swing Bed Programs

Allows for virtual rounding and specialty consults for patients in swing beds or post-acute transitional care, increasing the range of services hospitals can offer and extending length of stay revenue.

⸻

🔹 6. Hospital-at-Home Extensions

Used in hybrid care models where EMMA is deployed in satellite units, pop-up hospitals, or home settings under direct supervision of a remote care team.

⸻

🔹 7. Training, Supervision, and Second Opinions

Used by attending physicians to supervise advanced practice providers or residents remotely. Also enables peer-to-peer consults and second opinions on complex cases.

🔹 8. Tele-Wound Care

Allow wound care specialists to remotely assess, monitor, and guide bedside teams on complex wound cases. Ideal for facilities without full-time wound care teams—improves healing times and documentation accuracy.

Pediatric Use Cases for EMMA™

⸻

1. Remote Pediatric Specialty Consults

Enable real-time access to pediatric subspecialists (e.g., pediatric neurology, cardiology, infectious disease, pulmonology) in hospitals that lack in-house coverage.

⸻

2. Pediatric Emergency Department Support

Facilitate urgent consults with pediatricians or pediatric intensivists during critical ED encounters (e.g., seizures, respiratory distress, trauma), especially in non-children’s hospitals.

⸻

3. Pediatric Inpatient Virtual Rounding

Allow remote pediatric hospitalists to conduct daily virtual rounds, follow-ups, and family discussions—reducing gaps in care and improving continuity in lower-volume pediatric units.

⸻

4. Neonatal Support (Tele-NICU)

Provide virtual support for newborns in Level I/II nurseries with input from neonatologists or pediatricians. EMMA enables escalation of care decisions without immediate transfer.

⸻

5. Pediatric Tele-Wound and Post-Surgical Follow-Up

Use EMMA for remote wound care consults and post-op follow-ups for pediatric patients discharged early or treated in hospitals without pediatric surgery expertise.

⸻

6. Parental Communication and Education

Facilitate secure, real-time video calls between remote physicians and caregivers at the bedside. Helps explain diagnoses, treatment plans, or discharge instructions with empathy and clarity.

⸻

7. After-Hours Pediatrician Access

Provide nighttime or weekend coverage by remote pediatricians for inpatient or ED settings where 24/7 pediatric presence is unavailable—improving safety and decision-making.

💡 Why EMMA™ Stands Out in EMR/EHR Compatibility

⸻

✅ Cost-Effective Without Compromise

EMMA™ bypasses expensive, time-consuming EHR integrations while still delivering enterprise-level care. No interface builds. No IT headaches. Just plug, play, and start treating patients.

⸻

⚡ Lightning-Fast Adoption

Unlike solutions that require months of EHR mapping and testing, EMMA™ is live in under 2 weeks. Clinical teams are fully trained in under an hour—saving time, money, and resources.

⸻

👣 Compact, Clinical-Ready Design

EMMA™ isn’t just functional—it’s designed for real inpatient environments. With its small footprint, it fits easily into tight hospital rooms without disrupting existing tech or workflows.

⸻

🧠 Intuitive & Clinician-Centric

EMMA™ avoids the complexity of embedded EMR interfaces. Instead, it enables remote physicians to access the hospital’s native EMR securely, so they chart exactly where the local team does—keeping documentation streamlined.

⸻

🔌 Reliable, Fast, Secure. Zero Integration Downtime.

Because EMMA™ doesn’t rely on direct EHR API integrations, there’s no risk of downtime due to system updates or vendor changes. It’s always on, always connected.

⸻

🧬 AI-Powered, Not EMR-Dependent

EMMA™ includes Virtualis™, our built-in AI-driven clinical communication and smart scheduling tool—enhancing workflows without requiring any EMR data exchange.

⸻

🌎 Universally Compatible. Truly EHR-Agnostic.

Whether the hospital uses Epic, Cerner, Meditech, CPSI, or another system, EMMA™ works by securely logging into existing hospital EMRs. It mirrors the way physicians already document—no new workflows to learn, no data stored.
