You’ve heard of telehealth before, and you may use it for specialty physician-to-physician communication, but the concept of utilizing telehealth for seeing patients in a primary and specialty care setting is relatively new for rural health. DocOutsideTheBox™ represents the concept of coordinating patient care outside of the traditional bricks and mortar “box,” while also connoting a paradigm shift of “thinking outside the box” when it comes to primary care.

Legato works in tandem with strategic partner Valis, Inc., a leading national telehealth program administrator and advisor, to develop and communicate a solution customized to your unique situation. Your telehealth program can be up and running in a few weeks.

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS:

We develop a customized telehealth solution for primary & specialty care

  • We evaluate your individual situation.
  • Our telehealth experts have already vetted a number of technology platforms, and we will compare these for you along with other suggestions you may have, to land on the best solution for you.
  • We provide assistance along the way for implementation and communication to your providers, clinical teams and patients.
