MED CENTER HEALTH RECEIVES TELEMEDICINE GRANT

med center health will be using a grant from the  u-s-d-a to add technology to their hospitals in albany, franklin, caverna and scottsville…..

the grant of just under one-million dollars…..with med center health providing a 15-percent match….will provide  digital smart panels for  patient rooms in the four

hospitals…….allowing  patients to consult with specialists in bowling green….

 

telemedicine has been growing in the commonealth in response to a lack of resources in some areas and a shortage  in the workforce…..

med center health says they may have only done 20 remote consults a year when they first started the service…..but now they are doing  tens of thousands…..

 

and  they expect the technology to be in place by summer  20-25……..
