Advancements in medical technology are improving the quality of care and at the same time reducing the cost associated with the delivery of care like never before in the history of medicine. Advancements in Telemedicine beyond that of simply providing a video/audio link to connect physician and patient with a few medical devices for cursory medical diagnostics are making significant changes to a whole new way of delivering medical care.

The new patient-centered; medical records based; encounter management driven; clinical decision supported,

Telemedicine Solution - has come of age!

How Telemedicine can change the paradigm of Long Term Care and Assisted Living Medicine

Page 3: “Our Goal Is Simple, Putting People First In Everything We Do” ICUcare is a health information systems software developer and telemedicine/telehealth solutions.

Assisted Living persons struggle with mobility and often are completely dependant upon assistance from offsite care providers for any ambulatory activities.

Page 4: “Our Goal Is Simple, Putting People First In Everything We Do” ICUcare is a health information systems software developer and telemedicine/telehealth solutions.

Nursing Facility Facts:

• There are 17,000 nursing homes in the United States

• 1.6 million people live in nursing homes• More than 90 percent of current residents are 65

years of age and over. Almost half are 85 years or over.

• There are over 2.6 million falls annually in nursing home/assisted living facilities

• The total annual cost related to falls is in excess of 19.2 billion dollars

Page 5: “Our Goal Is Simple, Putting People First In Everything We Do” ICUcare is a health information systems software developer and telemedicine/telehealth solutions.

Routine transportation of residents to and from doctor’s appointments put the resident and nursing home facility at greater risk for injury and can expose both to financial hardships

Page 6: “Our Goal Is Simple, Putting People First In Everything We Do” ICUcare is a health information systems software developer and telemedicine/telehealth solutions.

Transportation Risks for the Resident

• Falls attributed to mounting and dismounting vehicle• Traffic accidents to and from destination• Skin tears and lacerations due to excessive

movement between bed and/or wheelchair• Broken bones, especially hip fractures from routine

transport offsite• Increased cost incurred by each resident to meet

rising fuel and vehicle costs

Page 7: “Our Goal Is Simple, Putting People First In Everything We Do” ICUcare is a health information systems software developer and telemedicine/telehealth solutions.

Transportation Risks for the Facility

• Increase in adverse events of residents• Higher staff costs• Increased insurance premiums for both residents

and staff• Cost of maintenance for extra vehicles or

contracted transportation• Exposure to increased liability offsite

Page 8: “Our Goal Is Simple, Putting People First In Everything We Do” ICUcare is a health information systems software developer and telemedicine/telehealth solutions.

On average, nursing/assisted living homes spend roughly $200* per resident, per month on transportation related expenses. That equates to $20,000 each month for a 100 bed home in transportation costs. Cutting

that by even 50% would save a 100 bed home $10,000 each month.

*Gerontology Monthly estimated costs for Nursing/Assisted Living Home with an average of 12 trips per year per resident

The role of Tele-medicine and eHealth in Nursing Home Settings• From Gerontology vol.47 #21: “Telemedicine was proven to be adequate service

delivery in up to 99% of routine medical visits, depending on specialty. In particular, savings were made through a 9% reduction in ER visits and 11% fewer admissions to an acute hospital ward in homes where telemedicine was utilized”
