Making Telehealth a Core Part of Service Delivery
It seems like telehealth has been beat to death since 2020 forced many healthcare providers to begin adopting the technology to continue seeing patients in the midst of lock-downs, stay-at-home orders, and social distancing. That being said, the shift to telehealth provided many great opportunities to innovative clinicians. And, in reality, clinicians and organizations have generally thought too small when it comes to telehealth and digital service delivery. The technology has the ability to radically change the way healthcare services are delivered.
My guest this week, Daniel Seidler, CEO of TelePT Solutions, is no stranger to the world of digital healthcare, especially in the rehab space. As a private practice owner for 15 years, he developed a great deal of insight and expertise in managing the process of care at his facility. After selling his business and helping establish a Telehealth program for Motion PT Group, he decided to branch out on his own and form TelePT Solutions, a training, marketing, and advisory firm that assists other PT clinics go virtual.
What we cover in this Episode:
- What is Telehealth?
- Different ways to deliver services digitally (synchronous vs asynchronous delivery)
- Value in healthcare & value-based reimbursement
- Doing Telehealth Right
- Cash-based vs in-network service delivery
