InPlace Medcial Solutions offers a more economical service. We train one of your employed on site first responders to use a less sophisticated version of our telemedicine device to connect with our team of non-distracted Licensed Physicians to receive expedient medical advice.


Remote Duty Paramedics and Nurses

Our Remote Duty Paramedics and Nurses (Paramedic vs. Nurse varies depending on geographic region) are trained to a higher level. As Physician Extenders they operate outside the normal parameters that define their occupation. Each of our Remote Duty Medical Professionals undergoes a five-day training course at our offices.

Telemedicine Program Management

Program Management is the building block of a telemedicine program. With more than a decade of practical applied telemedicine experience the InPlace Medical Solutions team can help oversee your in house telemedicine program to ensure it is working at optimal capacity using our field proven equipment and methods.

Electronic Medical Records

Our Electronic Medical Record (EMR) captures every patient encounter as documented by the on site medical professional and the Licensed Physician evaluating the patient via telemedicine. As a result you are able to get a clearer picture of utilization and overall healthcare of the employees at your remote locations. For work related incidents appropriate information is shared with necessary company personnel in accordance with privacy laws. All other medical information is aggregated, de-identified and returned to you monthly in the form of easy to read and understandable reports.

Medical Control

Each patient encounter begins with an initial assessment by an onsite medical professional. Once escalated the encounter is referred to our on duty Medical Control Physicians. Each of our highly trained telemedicine providers have years of experience dealing with cases related to working in remote environments. Our Licensed Physicians are on duty twenty-four hours a day seven days a week. Whilst on duty our Physicians are only seeing patients via telemedicine in remote locations. Our Physicians are not working in a physical brick and mortar clinic seeing patients in between telemedicine consultations. We call this the non- distracted provider model and it is one of our core beliefs.

Diagnostic Tools

A telemedicine visit is only as effective as the diagnostic tools available in the remote environment. We provide tools as needed for Cardiac Monitoring, Defibrillation, Cardioversion, Cardiac Pacing, End-Tidal CO2 Monitoring, 12 Lead Electrocardiogram, Non-Invasive Blood Pressure, Pulse Oximetry, Point of Care Cholesterol Screening, Hematocrit and Hemoglobin, and Chemistry Panels. We are committed to providing additional tools as may be necessary when they become available for field usage.

Medical Inventory Management

As part of our turnkey service we provide a full consignment of medical inventory necessary to carry out an effective telemedicine program. We replace and replenish the items as necessary to maintain appropriate inventory levels so that you do not have to assign personnel to this task. We tailor this package to the proven InPlace Medical Solutions Standard that we have developed over many cycles of use in various parts of the globe.

Wellness Program

Our Physician Directed Wellness Programs offer you an opportunity to asses the health of each of your employees operating in remote regions who do not always have the time necessary to receive preventive medicine evaluations on a regular basis. Our voluntary Health Risk Assessments begin with a thorough questionnaire that helps the consulting Physician identify specific personal risks for each patient. This conversation is done in conjunction with the remote site medical professional that we train to be a Health and Wellness Coordinator in addition to their medical duties. At the end of the initial Physician exam and consultation the patient should have a comprehensive personal risk profile with agreed goals and objectives for health improvement. These goals are tracked and supported by the Health and Wellness Coordinator.

Contract Medical Director

One of our Licensed Physicians with remote experience can be assigned to your company as Medical Director on a contract basis. This position can be utilized as the primary medical advisor for your company in all matters requiring professional medical expertise.

Additional Services

As part of our value proposition we are able to provide services not before available at the remote site on a per occurrence fee. This allows you to consolidate services that would normally require multiple providers or vendors.

  • Respiratory Fit Testing
