NexteliMed
Clinical telemedicine solutions for reducing hospital readmissions at skilled nursing facilities
Up to 78% of hospitalizations among SNF residents could be prevented with well-targeted interventions. Potentially Avoidable Hospitalizations (PAH) for skilled nursing facility residents are costly, expose patients to health risks, and exact a toll on patients and families. Many readmissions occur when there is no physician or nurse practitioner readily available, or when an immediate response is to send a patient to the ED.
