SCP will conduct rapid-cycle deployments of SOC Telemed’s IQ platform in multiple SCP emergency and hospital medicine programs, each week. The services are staffed by SCP clinicians and will enable surge coverage needs during the COVID-19 crisis and beyond.

As hospitals around America fill and become overwhelmed, the SCP/SOC partnership will deliver vital provider resources to aid the current overworked system. Additional benefits include stemming the spread of disease, as well as shifting physicians to remote triage should they become compromised and require quarantine.
“Our organizational partnership has been a priority for some time; together SCP and SOC can provide telemedicine services around the country, on-demand. But with the spread of the COVID-19 virus and the subsequent need for virtual care, we’re operating on an accelerated timeline,” notes Hai Tran, COO of SOC Telemed. “By partnering with SCP Health, our two organizations can rapidly deploy the people and technology needed on the front lines of the fight against coronavirus today and stand ready for the medical challenges of tomorrow.”

SOC’s proven enterprise-wide telemedicine platform Telemed IQ is already in use today in over 550 hospitals nationwide, and with plans for rapid expansion, should be in the majority of SCP’s programs in the near future.
