Telehealth

University of Utah Health specialty care providers offer Telemedicine services through partner organizations who connect the experts at U of U Health to their patients in the Mountain West region, and beyond. The goal of Telehealth Services and programs is to offer high quality and convenient specialized care to patients living in areas with limited access. Our mission is to "help patients receive excellent health care how, when, and where they need it."

Affiliate hospitals and more than 80 telemedicine sites across Utah, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, and Colorado are partnered with U of U Health programs so patients can receive care in their home community. The telehealth partnerships allow patients to avoid travel, save time, and address their health care needs closer to home. 

Telehealth sites are set up with contracted partners that may not be affiliated with U of U Health. Gunnison Valley Hospital is an example of a TeleStroke partner who is using telehealth services to fulfill their mission to provide high-quality healthcare services to Central Utah in a caring, current and efficient manner. Physicians and partners can use TeleHub stations, Zoom conferences, Telemedicine suites, Apps and more to communicate with U of U Health Specialists.

With programs ranging from acute patient consultations to education-based outreach, University of Utah Health is bringing world-class healthcare to the Mountain West through the use of HIPAA compliant technology and partnerships in rural communities.
