TeleSpring

Our Mission

TeleSpring's mission is to provide access to neurologists who match your needs, whether that is on-call emergency services, consultation services on patients admitted to the hospital, or staffing outpatient clinics.

As a division of NeuroSpring Inc, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, TeleSpring does not charge for its services. This minimizes the financial barriers faced by hospitals and clinics that need teleneurology services and by neurologists that need to make a decent income providing teleneurology services. We put the two together so that patients can benefit - and then we get out of the way.

How We Do It

We inform and we introduce.

Collectively TeleSpring’s founders have more than 50 years’ experience in teleneurology, and throughout our careers we have worked in more than a dozen teleneurology companies. We have seen both sides of the for-profit middlemen – how they overcharge the hospitals and underpay the neurologists – and we know how to split the difference to the benefit of both the hospital and the neurologist.

What We Don’t Do

We don't find short-term coverage to fill scheduling gaps or provide locums services.
We make lasting relationships that address community healthcare needs. But we are flexible and will address changes in the relationships we helped implement.

We don't get involved in patient billing or establishing malpractice insurance coverage.
We leave that to the hospital, or else to the neurologist who staffs the teleneurology services, depending upon the agreement between the hospital and neurologist.

We don't provide video conferencing equipment or telecommunications services.
Any medical-grade video conferencing equipment used by the hospital or clinic will work, and we know computer service experts that can address these issues on behalf of hospitals and neurologists.

We don't establish contracts between the hospital and neurologist.
But we are transparent about the costs to be encountered by both sides so that they can fairly share the money saved by not having to pay a middleman.
