“With our Eagle TeleStroke program, we have been able to limit our transfers to the small percentage of ED patients who truly need a higher level of care for interventional vascular therapy. We are a small community, and making an unnecessary transport means the local EMS unit is unavailable for two hours when it could be helping others in the community in their time of need.”
– Vallerie L. Gleason, President and CEO
“Conservatively, it is anticipated that access to teleneurology services will provide in excess of a $200,000 reduction in locum support costs annually and additional revenues in excess of $55,000 a year.”
– Duane C. Miller, Vice President and CFO
“Before we had Eagle TeleHospitalist night coverage, working day and night was very difficult and tiring. With Eagle TeleHospitalist night coverage, we always have a fresh set of eyes on the patient. The nursing staff is delighted, and patients are thrilled to see the doc beam in at night. Eagle TeleHospitalist night coverage gave me my personal life back, and probably saved my marriage.”
– Dr. Hasan Yousuf, Hospitalist Medical Director
“With Eagle Telemedicine, nighttime is the easiest part of the day for us to cover now. People think of telemedicine as a different modality, but it’s really just a different way of providing the exact same services we provide in person. It’s a rock-solid approach, and I’m happy we have it here.”
– Doug Romer, Executive Director, Patient Care Services
“Eagle Telemedicine has made it possible for us to achieve our patient admission goal. If hospitals like ours are going to remain open and serve rural populations, especially as the physician shortage increases, there has to be a new model of care to support the professionals who staff our facilities.”
– Bryant Anderson, CEO
“We had a community that was underserved. There was not a stroke center in our immediate area, and we wanted to be the answer. We embraced the Eagle TeleNeurology program to bring that teleneurologist right to the bedside, so we could serve a need of our community that previously had never been met.”
– Dana Meyer, CNO
“We’re able to keep more patients now and be confident they will get the care they need from our telehospitalist team.”
– Virgil Watson, CEO
