FAQ

A telehospitalist is a licensed hospital medicine physician who manages patient care remotely through secure video visits, working alongside your on-site nursing staff. They handle admissions, rounding, cross-coverage, and discharges just as an in-person hospitalist would, giving your facility coverage without needing a physician physically on-site around the clock.

Instead of paying for a full in-house hospitalist to cover nights and off-hours, Tele-Cross Coverage connects your floor staff to a remote hospitalist who handles floor calls and urgent issues overnight. This frees your in-house team to focus on admissions and rounding during the day, cutting overtime and locum costs while keeping coverage gaps filled.

Tele-Rounding is designed to supplement, not fully replace, in-person care — it’s most effective for routine bedside check-ins, status updates, and follow-up visits where a virtual visit maintains quality and patient satisfaction while cutting down on physician travel time. Your care team decides which visits are appropriate for tele-rounding versus requiring an in-person hospitalist.

Implementation timelines vary by facility size and existing infrastructure, but most hospitals can integrate tele-admissions, cross-coverage, or tele-discharge support within a few weeks of onboarding.
