Florida system extends TeleHealth contract

TeleHealth Services, patient education software provider, has extended its partnership with St. Vincent’s HealthCare to assist the hospital’s patient education initiatives.

TIGR is a patient and staff education system including access to a hospital’s library of educational videos available at the patient’s bedside and documentation and testing capabilities, the Raleigh, N.C.-based TeleHealth stated.
