Definitions Telemedicine is the use of telecommunications to
provide medical information and services It may be as simple as two health professionals discussing a patient
over the telephone, or as sophisticated as using satellite technology to broadcast a consultation between providers at facilities in two countries, using videoconferencing equipment or robotic technology.
Telehealth is a broader term and includes telemedicine, electronic medical records, online drug pharmacies, and distance education (DE) for teaching and continuing education.
Telegenetics is the application of telemedicine to clinical genetic services

With current technology, any activity that you can do in person can be accomplished as a tele-genetics service

Examples of Services we have Provided Dysmorphology evaluations
Confirmed by on-site follow up Genetic counseling
Especially good for following up results Urgent NICU consultations Cancer genetics sessions Interdisciplinary team outreach Procedure supervision Participation in distant interdisciplinary team

1. Statewide Telehealth Services for Children with SHCN
Multiple services can be provided through these links
It is understood that each community has its own unique needs and desires for services to be utilized through such a network
As such, a ‘menu’ of services is available to chose from by the home communities. Below is a list of potential services that can be provided. This list is not comprehensive, but representative of possible applications:
![Page 13: Telemedicine Applications in Clinical Genetics](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062803/5681474c550346895db48f72/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Statewide Telehealth Services for Children with SHCN
1) Participation in the IEP and IFSP processesA) MMI staff could perform the entire evaluation. We suspect that this would be necessary only on a temporary basis during times of need or crisis (summer hiatus, temporary suspension of team activities, etc.)B) MMI staff could participate in the IEP / IFSP processes with an existing team as a gap - filling member (e.g. an existing team is in place , but does not have a physical therapist)
2) Direct (primary) patient assessments . These services could be provided for any of the MMI disciplines (clinical genetics, genetic counseling, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology, child psychology, developmental pediatrics, nutrition, nursing (case management), social work, recreational therapy, and diabetes / endocrinology).
![Page 14: Telemedicine Applications in Clinical Genetics](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062803/5681474c550346895db48f72/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Statewide Telehealth Services for Children with SHCN
3) Discipline specific consultative services on difficult cases (available for all MMI disciplines listed above)
4) Continuing education / training. An ongoing series of special topics, issues in the care of CSHCN, and new updates would be provided. These activities would be open to a broader audience than those for direct patient services.
5) Quality assurance monitoring of local teams. This would include help with Federal compliance reviews, ongoing team monitoring, and technical assistance in the development of local QA activities.
6) Provision of quaternary interdisciplinary services only available in Nebraska metropolitan areas
Speciality services in complicated disorders may only be found in Omaha and sometimes Lincoln. Even if the primary discipline is available to the patient, complex cases may require quaternary services. Examples of such services would include the interdisciplinary teams as well as services in sleep disorders, eneuresis / encopresis, autism and the neurobehavioral team.

ANGELS A joint venture between The University of Arkansas for
Medical Sciences, the Arkansas Department of Health and Human Services and the Arkansas Medical Society.
ANGELS is an acronym for Antenatal and Neonatal Guidelines, Education, and Learning System.
ANGELS has been an enormously successful program. ANGELS is designed to provide best practices in diagnosing
and treating high-risk pregnancies, providing continuing medical education for Arkansas obstetricians and family practice physicians, and facilitating referrals of pregnant women with severe medical complications to UAMS for specialized care.
