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.

Medical Services
By providing medical services that includes physician and nursing
services at your jail, DHCA provides a proven model for delivering
needed health care, making the smartest use of your limited resources.
Key
Benefits We Bring
to YOU!
-
Consolidation of inmate health care
responsibility and accountability into a single, seamless point of
contact.
-
A new telemedicine system that allows
for “physician services to always be available.”
-
24/7 access to health care
decision-making.
-
Nurses available daily from just a
few hours to 24 hours a day seven days a week depending on the facility
size and specific needs, and these nurses will be on call to provide
services to security personnel 24 hours a day.
-
Medications management based on a
generic formulary provided by a pharmacy managed by physician services,
a nursing staff, and professional pharmacists acquainted with jail
medicine and the legal requirements of providing adequate health care
services to inmates.
-
Compliance with state health care
standards as well as standards developed by the American Corrections
Association (ACA) and the National Commission on Correctional Health
Care (NCCHC).
-
Consistent, appropriate, and
customized treatment for each inmate.
Our guidelines
and protocols will closely manage health care expenses saving valuable
resources by lowering transportation and security costs.
In other words,
we save valuable resources by bringing as much health care to a jail as
possible rather than having inmates taken off site to receive health
care. If a facility is using a local physician or the emergency room for
medical services expenses as well as a local pharmacy for medications,
DHCA can comfortably claim that it
can save as much as 50% off of current expenses.
