Learn how Henry Ford Health reduced costs and patient frustration by using advanced telehealth to monitor post-discharge patients from the comforts of their home.

Effective telehealth addresses key performance metrics:

• Higher visit resolution rates reduce the need for in-person appointments.
• Lower visit duration times make staff workloads more efficient and manageable.
• Improved ED diversion saves clinician time and lowers costs.
• Lowered readmission rates reduce crowding in hospitals and improve operational efficiency.
• Staff utilization across geographies eases the burden on clinicians while serving a wide range of community members.
