Current Health Integration with Zoom
Current Health’s integration with Zoom improves the patient experience and reduces barriers to access by providing more reliable virtual communications, even for patients with limited or low latency network bandwidth. The integration also provides the ability for multiple participants to join a telehealth session, allowing healthcare providers to discuss a patient’s diagnosis or treatment plan with an extended team of caregivers or family members. Additionally, interpreters can now be included in telehealth visits to enable better communication between the provider and patient and improve patient satisfaction and outcomes.

“Our mission is to deliver quality care for all people in the most seamless ways possible,” said Chris McCann, CEO and Founder of Current Health. “We know that home-based care reduces complications for at-risk populations and cuts costs by 30% for health systems. With this Zoom integration, we aim to build upon these benefits by empowering healthcare providers to replicate the in-person experience in the home to deliver best of breed diagnosis and care at scale.”
