Telemedicine Partner
MCG Health System recently became one of 40 health care
facilities to participate in the Georgia Telemedicine Program, a comprehensive
network of the Georgia Rural Health Initiative. MCG will serve as a specialty
center providing diagnostic and treatment plans to rural pediatric patients and
their physicians statewide. The program allows the specialist to receive images,
medical records and data quickly, easily and securely. A Blue Cross Blue Shield
of Georgia grant is funding the equipment and training.
