 A world of access.

What does the Finger Lakes Telehealth Network have to offer? Quite simply, a whole new world of opportunities to expand your medical facility and improve patient care.  Providers and patients can have a face-to-face consultation with an off-site specialist in areas such as dermatology, dentistry, behavioral health, nutrition, pulmonology, ENT, and diabetic retinotherapy…to name a few.  Through the use of digital technology and medical cameras, off-site specialists can examine your patient and consult on their diagnosis and treatment.

Programs provided by the Finger Lakes Telehealth Network include:

• • • Dental screenings and care
    • Age-appropriate dental exams and physicals for the community Head Start and migrant children and youth
    • Eye exams for vision, glaucoma, and diabetic retinopathy
    • Adolescent and adult behavioral health services
    • Occupational health consultations
    • Clinical mentoring and Continuing Medical Education (CME) and distance education

Innovation that heals…technology that teaches.

The Finger Lakes Telehealth Network is an innovative clinical tool for providers and patients. It also keeps your organization on the cutting edge of medicine and facilitates dialogue with multi-location medical facilities . A physician in New York State can attend an international conference in Zurich without leaving the country. Providers and staff can learn the latest medical techniques—right from their offices. Reviewing new research developments, case-conferencing, counseling, board training—the applications are virtually endless with our Telehealth Network. And, the cost savings to your organization are dramatic when you factor in the elimination of travel expenses and time savings.

Connect. Collaborate. Communicate.
