Real-world results

During a six-month eConsultant - SNF pilot, a total of 131 calls were placed from the SNFs to the telehealth center. In the evaluation of those calls, the health system estimated in about 15 percent of those cases, an emergency department transfer was avoided.*

*Transfer avoidance is subjective analysis based on staff input.¹
