- storing medical provider information in a database or other memory, credentials, and availability information,
- receiving a request from a requestor, for delivery to a specified location, of one or more of:
- medical sensors, patient supplies, pre-surgical preparation, surgical equipment, physician consultation, and patient care,
- identifying suitable medical providers to respond to the service request based on type of service, availability of the provider, and location of the provider,
- and
- allocating the service request to a provider.
A system for addressing service calls for the delivery of remote medical services, comprising:
- a server,
- a database for storing information about medical providers wishing to respond to service calls,
- a platform that defines a provider dashboard for capturing medical provider information, and a requestor dashboard for capturing service requestor information and allow the requestor to submit a request for services,
- a notifying communications system for notifying suitable medical providers of service requests, and
- a memory with machine readable logic defining an algorithm for determining suitable providers for a service call based on the location of the service, availability of providers, and location of providers.
The system 15, wherein the requestor dashboard includes the ability to select a provider, and the system further includes a requestor-provider communications system for communication between requestor and provider prior to, during and after selection by text, email, voice or other means once a provider is selected.
