Case Study: a community-based hospital in Eastern Missouri reduces transfers by 36% with Sevaro teleneurology

Leading Community-Based Hospital - Customer Case Study

A leading community-based hospital in eastern Missouri faced a significant challenge after losing its inpatient neurology coverage in 2020, creating a critical gap in acute stroke and neurological care for its community. To address this, the hospital partnered with Sevaro to implement its teleneurology service and restore access to expert neurological care.

Sevaro provided the hospital with a comprehensive teleneurology solution, offering both emergent and non-emergent neurological coverage via video consultations with board-certified neurologists. The results were substantial, as the average number of neurological consults increased by over 114%. Most significantly, Sevaro's service allowed the hospital to retain 131 neurological patients, reducing its transfer rate by 36% and enabling more patients to receive care within their local community.
