Case Study: CEP America delivers remote specialist care to Iraq Kurdistan refugees with VSee telemedicine
A VSee Case Study
VSee & CEP America Use Telemedicine to Help Iraq Kurdistan Refugees
CEP America faced an urgent challenge as Iraq Kurdistan’s healthcare system became overwhelmed by internal refugees fleeing violence and economic crisis linked to the Islamic State. VSee provided its secure telemedicine platform to help connect distant specialists with patients and local clinicians in this high-pressure environment.
Using VSee’s secure telemedicine platform, CEP America ER specialist Dr. Rick Newell connected live with Dr. Shang at Azadi Hospital and an 11‑year‑old refugee patient, seeing the boy’s face and pulse readings in real time and offering clinical recommendations. VSee enabled remote specialist expertise to reach the field immediately, directly supporting patient care in a strained regional system.
