LodgeNetRX™ provides interactive systems that can transform healthcare facility’s televisions into an on demand patient education and communication solution that’s easy to install, use and maintain. LodgeNetRX provides the Interactive Patient Television System™ to healthcare facilities as an end-to-end interactive television solution. LodgeNetRX and wired.MD have formed a partnership to provide the streaMed CCTV patient education library to LodgeNetRX's customers.
For years LodgeNet has been a leading provider of interactive systems and recently emerged in the healthcare marketplace with LodgeNetRX after having built a significant solution for acute settings. The LodgeNetRX solution needed to provide up to date, evidence-based patient education and therefore wired.MD was selected. The streaMed CCTV library, which currently stands at 370 titles, is immediately available for both existing and future clients. The combined LodgeNetRX and wired.MD solution has already been deployed in various hospital locations.
”LodgeNet has been a significant company in the interactive systems space for a number of years in other industries and upon their launch we knew there was a great opportunity for a strategic partnership. wired.MD looks to align with the industry leaders to provide the most advance patient education systems available and the partnership with LodgeNetRX was definitely in that realm.” says Mark Friess, CEO of wired.MD.
