Senior Second Opinion TeleHealth
The Senior Second Opinion TeleHealth Clinic represents a pioneering approach to healthcare, offering services primarily staffed by retired physicians. This unique telehealth initiative focuses on T2 diseases such as asthma, allergy, immunology, and food allergies, aiming to provide accessible, free or low-cost healthcare solutions. Services will be available directly to patients or through insurance and Medicare/Medicaid. By embedding referrals within Self-Directed Management (SDM) and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Tools, as well as informational sites managed by NHTI, the project exemplifies NHTI’s mission to leverage technology in bridging healthcare accessibility gaps, especially for underserved communities.
