Project Description
The Ambulance-Based Telemedicine (AmBT) project focuses on understanding the feasibility of telemedicine as a form of healthcare in rural settings, specifically in Alabama. The goal of the triple aim of medicine is to analyze the cost of care for both patients and providers, patient and provider satisfaction, and the quality of care compared to traditional care. Prior to implementation, research had to be conducted to understand current literature on the topic. We found that not a lot of research discusses the feasibility of telemedicine in rural settings. Once implantation starts, we will begin to get hospital data to assess the feasibility of telemedicine as a form of healthcare in rural Alabama. This data will allow us a better understanding of telemedicine and its effectiveness in different settings.
