St. Luke's Provides Remote Healthcare With Virtual Center

St. Luke's
St. Luke's Telehealth Services and Virtual Care

St. Luke's Health System is investing $3.4 million in a virtual care center - a "high tech hub" with a medical team available to provide assistance 24/7. The center will be able to connect doctors with rural Idahoans and those with mobility issues. Idaho Matters discusses this new trend in health care with St. Luke's and how this could be a game changer for underserved rural communities.
