Teladoc is successfully partnering with facilities across the
United States to address diverse needs including increased

“Hospitals and health systems are under tremendous operating
pressures, particularly as the industry shifts more toward
value-based care and they seek to meet the care needs of new
populations,” explained Alan Roga, M.D., president, health system

Teladoc solution is that it is tailored specifically to support
health systems as they expand and innovate their approach to care
delivery.”
