The St. Louis-based virtual care center adds another spoke in Pennsylvania, partnering with Penn State Health, and hopes to add more.
Mercy Virtual’s telemedicine hub has gained another spoke.
The high-tech “hospital without beds” in St. Louis announced a partnership with Penn State Health’sMilton S. Hershey Medical Center during last week’s American Telemedicine Association conference. The agreement enables Mercy to assist in the monitoring and care of the 551-bed hospital’s ICU patients – and instantly will extend Mercy’s virtual network through the Penn State Health system.
Mercy opened its $54 million, four-story virtual care center previous fall, and this February signed a pact to handle eICU services for the University of North Carolina Health Care system. Mercy officials vowed the UNCHC partnership was just the first of many.
