22
PERSPECTIVE: Convinced Telemed is an Important Tool Excited Overwhelmed Want Hub, Spoke & Needle Contacts Want Call Coverage CONCERNS: Not be Taken for Granted or Left Out Rather See Resources Spent on Other Things Worried about Fewer Med-Evacs Some Acute Cases TELEMED NEEDLE: Certified Health Aide / Professional (CHA/P) at Village Health Clinic
23
PERSPECTIVE: Motivated Want Hub, Spoke, & Needle Contacts Improve Communication Diagnostic Tool Management Tool CONCERNS: Adequate Training Electronic Forms Capability Call Coverage Technical Support TELEMED NEEDLE: Mid-Level Provider (PAs or CNPs) at Sub-Regional Clinic

25
PERSPECTIVE: 50%/50% Acceptance Want Hub Contacts to Specialists Access to Competition Training Tool Want Regional Support CONCERNS: Call-Back Nuisance Changing Referral Patterns Bypassing Present System Protocols TELEMED SPOKE: Physician Provider at Regional Hospital
26
PERSPECTIVE: Motivated Like Original Films to Stay in Department Emergency Reports-1H Report Time doesn’t Depend on Mail - 24 Hr CONCERNS: More Clerical Work Computer Phobia Loss of Data / Glitches Slow Transmission Times Technical Support TELERAD SPOKE: Rad Technologist at Regional Hospital
27
PERSPECTIVE: Interested / Skeptical Want Clinical Quality - Medium Resolution Emergency Reports-1H Interpretation - 24 Hr Permits Pulling Previous Exams CONCERNS: Easy User Interface Still Like Looking at Film Fast Send Rates - Compression Technical Support TELERAD SPOKE: Physician at Regional Hospital
