Telehealth Trends, Techniques, and Insights
Rockstar Telehealth Coordinators are made, not born
The primary responsibility of a Telehealth Coordinator is to help clinicians and patients have a great telehealth experience. Neither a great telehealth strategy nor the latest telehealth technology will create sustainable success with patients, providers, nurses, and support staff.
The single critical ingredient to ensuring the success of your telehealth services is a Rock Star Telehealth Coordinator. The good news is that Rock Star Telehealth Coordinators are not born, but they are made.
In this presentation, Christian Milaster, Founder and CEO of Ingenium Digital Health Advisor will review the 7 critical qualities, 4 primary responsibilities, and the 7 key skills that a Telehealth Coordinator must master to become a Rock Star.

Telehealth Case Study
Telehealth Support that Engages Patients and Delights Clinicians
Does your organization understand the benefits of, or currently employ, a “Telehealth Coordinator”? Providers may be hesitant to offer virtual visits because they believe that in-person visits are the only effective way to assist patients. A Virtual Care Coordinator from a rural FQHC will demonstrate how to provide the necessary support and training to improve clinician acceptance of virtual care.
Based on guidance from Ingenium Advisors, proven approaches and practical tactics for optimizing virtual care will be shared. Strategies will be introduced to the group on how to establish and implement appropriate levels of operational, technical, clinical, and strategic development for your virtual care program.
Specific, thought-provoking examples of the optimization journey, such as video Tech-Checks, Webside Manners training (including virtual physical exams), Issues Tracking, workflow design, and technological upgrades will be shared to help your organization make significant strides in the future.
