TeleMed

We have telemed in each jail. 

We can connect to each doctor, nurse and office staff through our new broadband system, creating efficiencies and effective levels of health care management unheard of in the recent past. Telemedicine is the future of health care, especially in remote facilities such as many smaller county jails.

Detention Health Care Associates, Inc. (DHCA) provides an efficient and cost-effective means for delivering 24/7 inmate health care management with the least impact on jail personnel and resources.  We have developed a model of services based on a telemedicine component to our health care program that ensures you have competent health care services when you need them that includes not only medical care but dental, mental health, and pharmacy services as well.

We bring our services to YOU!

  • Pharmacy services insuring the use of generic drugs at the lowest possible cost.

  • A telemedicine system designed to bring health care into the jail reducing the need to take inmates off site for routine health care services.

  • Mental health services brought inside the facility through use of telemedicine technology, allowing for treatment for many mental health issues in the facility.

  • Dental services brought to the facility on a scheduled basis eliminating the need to schedule off site dental or to transport inmates.

  • A claims management system that allows for insurance discounts on all off site health care costs that costs you nothing.

  • Access to an inmate health care insurance program that has the ability to cap your inmate health care expenses.

DHCA is a Tennessee corporation established in 2004 to provide a range of health care services required to meet the special needs of inmates committed to local jails, especially those with fewer than 500 beds.  This is our company’s sole focus and we are qualified to provide these services through our staff that specialize in jail health care management with experience in establishing and implementing policies and procedures required to manage a modern detention health care   operation.  We understand the political and clinical nuances and the challenges of delivering these services to smaller facilities in a way that other companies will not.

We encourage you to speak with our current clients regarding our responsiveness, efficiency, and knowledge of your inmate health care needs.  We are currently providing these services in Anderson, Bradley. Jackson, DeKalb, Macon, Monroe, White, and Trousdale Counties and dental services only in Lincoln, Franklin  and Scott Counties.  You are encouraged to contact the Mayor or County Executive, Sheriff, and/or Jail Administrator in any of these counties to discuss the quality and effectiveness of our services.
