OnMed Teams Up with Leading Medical Solutions Providers to Develop Medical Surge Capabilities for U.S. National Disaster Medical System
Pilot project will develop and test new system to provide critical care during national security medical emergencies
___
TAMPA, December 12th 2023 – OnMed announced today that it is participating in a pilot project which aims to increase medical surge capabilities and capacity of the U.S. National Disaster Medical System (NDMS).
Funded by the Defense Health Agency (DHA), the pilot project brings together leading medical solutions providers in a team led by Deloitte Consulting LLP, to design, develop and test a prototype of modular or convertible medical facilities that would increase surge capabilities in national security medical emergencies. This combined “surge solution” aims to strengthen the USA’s response to national disasters and the capacity to care for casualties from an overseas wartime contingency, a domestic attack, or other national security medical emergencies.
OnMed is headquartered in Tampa, Florida. OnMed is dedicated to improving access to quality affordable care for all, particularly underserved populations. Their transformative Virtual Care Platform gives healthcare sponsors an alternative to traditional brick and mortar clinics while maintaining the clinical standards and personalized patient experience found in a typical in-office visit. The platform features the OnMed Care Station along with OnMed’s fully integrated Clinical Services capability. The OnMed Care Station combines real-time diagnostic technology to measure key vitals and inform clinical diagnosis and treatments along with interactive communication technologies to provide patients with a real-life patient experience.
Patients are instantly connected to OnMed’s fully integrated clinical team and supporting data and EMR services to manage the patient visit, treatment plan and any on-going care plans including the ability to provide required medications at the time of the visit and refer patients for extended care if required. OnMed serves multiple markets including Payers, Provider Systems, Government Agencies and Organizations, Large Employers and Colleges and Universities.
“We are proud to join with Deloitte and the other members of this effort to innovate and advance this critical medical capability for the country and our citizens, says Howard Gruverman, executive at OnMed. “This effort not only extends our work with other Department of Defense projects but continues to purpose the OnMed Virtual Care Platform towards advancing and supporting quality care for all.”
The project team, led by Deloitte, includes the Southwest Texas Regional Advisory Council (STRAC), Bison Six Emergency Group, and OnMed.
“We are thrilled to be working with Thornhill Medical, Southwest Texas Regional Advisory Council, Bison Six Emergency Group and OnMed” says Shaun Rangappa, MD, Managing Director at Deloitte Consulting LLP. “Our collective capabilities will help the NDMS pilot in its efforts to build modular care delivery capabilities that can be rapidly deployed during disasters or national security events and thereby enhance the speed, scale, and quality of response.”
