Remote medical evaluation

Abstract

A consult coordination center (CCC) computer may comprise a database and a processor. A scheduling module executed by the processor may schedule a patient assessment session for a facility, the patient assessment session comprising an assessment of at least one patient in the facility by a remote health care professional to determine whether the at least one patient should be given more immediate care. An assignment module executed by the processor may assign the scheduled patient assessment session to a health care professional computer. A connection module executed by the processor may create a remote connection between the health care professional computer and a computer at the facility via a network to facilitate the patient assessment session, the remote connection comprising a video feed from the computer at the facility to the health care professional computer. A data module executed by the processor may retrieve a report of a previous patient assessment session at the facility from the database, send the report of the previous patient assessment session at the facility to the health care professional computer, receive a report of the patient assessment session, and store the report of the patient assessment session in the database.
