TeleNeph offers a comprehensive suite of nephrology services designed to seamlessly integrate with your hospital’s processes and workflow for all your nephrology needs. Our goal is to extend your clinical team’s capabilities, providing a complete solution that ensures your patients receive expert, uninterrupted quality care. We dedicate two nephrologists to your hospital who provide 24×7 coverage, and provide a team of nurses for implementation and ongoing support to your clinical team. Our services are tailored to meet the unique needs of your facility and improve patient outcomes.

TeleNeph’s clinical end-to-end telenephrology solution allows rural hospitals to meet the needs of nephrology patients without transferring them to another hospital or turning them away when they need care.

With TeleNeph, you have all the capabilities required to deliver quality care to your community:

Dedicated nephrologists

Each hospital is assigned two nephrologists, who become an extension of your team and respond within 10 minutes.

Dedicated nurse team

A former rural hospital CNO and dialysis RN support your implementation and provide ongoing support for your clinical team, including staffing models, processes and procedures, competency tools, training resources, and an implementation template.

We leverage your technology

We integrate with your existing electronic health records (EHRs) and other technologies. Technology should never be a hindrance to delivering clinical care.

Telenephrology in Your Community

The reality is nephrology patients who live in your community deserve to receive care at your hospital rather than somewhere else. Every hospital is unique, so we ensure that we will align with your existing workflow.

Benefits to the Hospital and Community

A number of our hospital CEOs have stated that you cannot view this program as a silo solution, as it will impact all services lines and community healthcare providers:

  • Reduced time spent by emergency department staff contacting other hospitals for patient transfers
  • Increased patient and employee satisfaction
  • Increased nurse retention, as they are learning new skills
  • Impacts the hospital’s total revenue because these patients are high utilizers of healthcare and receive care from all service lines
  • Increased elective surgeries
  • Swing beds are filled
  • Patients’ families and friends more likely to receive care within the community
  • Increased transfers from emergency medical response teams
