Products & Services

After-Hours Coverage for Medical Practices:

At night, on the weekends, or whenever your office is closed, we will provide your patients with triage and health advice and fax you an encounter report after every call.  We work with your answering service to assure that every call is handled according to your specifications, with a low monthly minimum charge. 

Corporate Health Services:

FONEMED's nurse advice is a great addition to your benefits package.  Whether you are a benefits provider, TPA, insurer, assistance helpline, or a case management company, FONEMED triage can seamlessly integrate with the other benefits and services you provide.  FONEMED also backs up Medicare and Medicaid services nationwide.  FONEMED's triage is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, via a toll-free number. 

Triage Software and Protocols:

FONEMED's copyrighted triage software includes everything a nurse or doctor needs to perform telephone-based triage.  It was designed in coordination with experienced triage personnel, and builds on 10 years of experience in the health call center industry. The medical protocols of Dr. Barton Schmitt and Dr. David Thompson have been integrated, but other protocols can be plugged in just as easily.  

EXPOSURE HOTLINE:

With Florida Hospital Centra Care, FONEMED operates an award-winning 24/7 Hotline for occupational exposure to infectious body fluids, communicable diseases, unusual substances, pandemics and bio terrorism. It is available as a nationwide service or as an installed or hosted system.   Contact us for more information.
