(Scottsdale, Ariz.)GlobalMed, the worldwide leader in telemedicine delivery solutions, is honored to be highlighted in the August 3 White House press conference with its ClinicalAccess Station, TotalExam 3 Camera, Transportable Exam Station, and eNcounter software platform. During the conference, President Trump, along with Secretary of Veteran Affairs, Dr. David J. Shulkin, demonstrated telemedicine innovations that improve veteran healthcare.
Dr. Shulkin showcased the GlobalMed equipment, highlighting a dermatological use case for the ClinicalAccess Station with a veteran patient at a VA clinic in Grant Pass, Oreg., as well as touted the portability of the Transportable Exam Station (TES) to President Trump. While presenting the TES and clarifying this is the same equipment used on Air Force One, Dr. Shulkin stated, This is actually the new doctors bag, the doctors bag of the future.
In partnership with the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs (VA), the CEO of GlobalMed, Joel E. Barthelemy, has been working diligently with his team since 2008 to increase access to medical care for thousands of veterans across the country as well as in U.S. territories. Through increased access to medical care, veterans similar to Barthelemy, are able to receive treatment faster; resulting in decreased recovery times, increased patient satisfaction and outcomes, as well as a significant reduction in the amount of money and resources utilized to treat veteran patients. This proven technology platform has enabled the VA to target care and case management to improve access to care and improve the health of veterans nationwide and beyond.
With telemedicine solutions like GlobalMed, hundreds of thousands of veterans are receiving the necessary treatment they require. Were extremely proud to work with the VA to help them provide healthcare access to those who have fought for our country and put their lives on the line for ourfreedom, says Joel E. Barthelemy, CEO of GlobalMed.
In 2016, GlobalMeds Transportable Exam Station (TES) was introduced to the White House as an additional method for offering telemedicine solutions to the President of the UnitedStates. GlobalMeds technology platforms were utilized by the Obama Administration and are now also used by President Donald J. Trump, showcasing that veterans across the country have access to the same medical technology as the president himself.
