Built for the Organizations That Deliver Care.

Community Hospitals

Rural & Community Hospitals

Specialist shortages, referral leakage, and limited specialty coverage create gaps in care that affect patient outcomes and hospital sustainability.

Rural and community hospitals often lack the patient volume or financial resources to recruit and retain full-time specialists across every needed discipline. TeleEDge connects these hospitals with participating specialty physicians — providing coverage across outpatient, inpatient, and emergency settings without requiring direct employment of every specialist.

• Expand specialty coverage without full-time specialist recruitment
• Reduce referral leakage to distant tertiary centers
• Support ED and inpatient specialty consultation
• Support coordinated specialty care closer to patients' communities

Critical Access Hospitals

Critical Access Hospitals

Operating under strict regulatory and financial constraints, Critical Access Hospitals face the most acute specialty access challenges in the healthcare system.

Critical Access Hospitals serve some of the most vulnerable and geographically isolated communities in the country. TeleEDge helps these hospitals extend specialty access to their patients and communities — supporting clinical quality and operational sustainability within the realities of CAH environments.

• Specialty coverage aligned with CAH operational realities
• Support for swing-bed and post-acute specialty needs
• Behavioral health and mental health specialty access
• Coordinated pathways for escalation to higher-level care

FQHCs & RHCs

FQHCs & Rural Health Clinics

Primary care teams in federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics frequently encounter patients with specialty needs they cannot address alone — and face long wait times and geographic barriers to specialty referral.

TeleEDge connects FQHC and RHC primary care teams with participating specialty physicians — enabling eConsults, virtual specialty visits, and coordinated specialty follow-up that keeps patients connected to their primary care home while accessing the specialty expertise they need.

• eConsults and specialty guidance for primary care teams
• Virtual specialty visits integrated with primary care workflows
• Medication management and specialty pharmacy coordination
• Reduced specialty referral delays and improved care continuity

Health Systems

Health Systems

Health systems face pressure to extend specialty access across their networks — including into underserved and rural communities — while managing specialist capacity, referral patterns, and care coordination across multiple sites.

TeleEDge helps health systems extend their specialty networks into underserved communities, coordinate care across sites, and reduce referral leakage — creating connected specialty care infrastructure that supports both system-wide strategy and individual patient outcomes.

• Extend specialty access across system-affiliated sites
• Reduce out-of-network referral leakage
• Coordinate specialty care across rural and community affiliates
• Support population health and value-based care initiatives

State & Regional Initiatives

State & Regional Health Initiatives

State health agencies, regional health organizations, and grant-funded initiatives need scalable specialty-access infrastructure that can serve populations across broad geographies.

TeleEDge works with state and regional healthcare organizations to develop specialty-access infrastructure that serves communities and populations at scale — supporting public health initiatives, grant-funded programs, and regional healthcare strategies.

• Scalable specialty-access models for regional deployment
• Support for state telehealth and rural health programs
• Infrastructure for grant-funded specialty access initiatives
• Population-level specialty access data and reporting

Specialty Groups

Specialty Groups

Specialty physician groups and practices seek to extend their reach into new communities and patient populations — while maintaining clinical quality and creating sustainable care pathways.

TeleEDge creates coordinated pathways for specialty groups to extend their reach into rural and underserved communities — connecting participating specialists with the organizations and patients who need them, and supporting longitudinal care relationships and procedural pathways.

• Extend specialty reach into new communities and markets
• Coordinated referral and consultation pathways
• Longitudinal specialty care relationships
• Procedural and in-person care coordination
