As of June 2022, M Health Fairview, an academic health system located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is conducting between 20% and 30% of its total visit volumes virtually. To ensure continued patient and provider success with virtual care appointments, the health system developed a new role: the Virtual Visit Facilitator.

During this webinar, M Health Fairview discusses the incredible success it has seen with this new full-time position, including how the Virtual Visit Facilitator role has:

  • Streamlined the virtual workflow, reducing total time and staff involvement
  • Improved provider satisfaction and adoption of virtual care
  • Helped develop a virtual rooming workflow that ensures patient and provider success
  • Differentiated itself from a medical assistant or receptionist position

Speakers:

  • Tina Lonsky, MHA, BSN, RN, Director of Nursing, Ambulatory Specialty Operations, M Health Fairview
  • Tara Cain, Virtual Care Program Manager, M Health Fairview

“Amwell’s platform is so easy for families and providers to use; it was a natural fit for Nemours.”

“Nemours puts patients and families at the center of everything we do, so as we started to think about providing care virtually it was absolutely essential that we still be able to deliver that type of patient and family-centered care. Amwell’s platform is so easy for families and providers to use; it was a natural fit for Nemours. Amwell continues to be the innovative leader in the telehealth space and continues to adopt to our changing needs.”
