National Telehealth Center of Excellence
The MUSC Center for Telehealth has been recognized by the Health Resources and Services Administration as one of two National Telehealth Centers of Excellence. Learn more about the MUSC Center for Telehealth Center of Excellence.We’re using telehealth technology and working collaboratively with providers across South Carolina to get patients the care they need, where and when they need it. That might be a stroke patient presenting at a community hospital ER at three in the morning, an expectant mother in a rural community with a difficult pregnancy, or a student with an allergy - who if treated early - will never miss a day of class. Some services are being delivered directly into the patients homes and on their mobile devices.
The Center for Telehealth offers an expanding array of hospital-based services. We are adding Neonatology and Sickle Cell services to the list, with many more to come.
The Center for Telehealth delivers specialty services into private practices and clinics in the MUSC service area, known as Outpatient Telehealth (OT). Specialties include maternal-fetal medicine, nutrition, and psychiatry.
The School-Based Telehealth program brings advanced health care to children in the school setting. It helps overcome barriers such as long travel distances, missed school days, and missed work for parents — especially in rural or medically underserved areas.
Skilled nursing facilities care for some of the most frail and complex patients. Telehealth helps extend care in place, reducing unnecessary emergency department transports for non-emergent cases.
While jails and prisons have on-site medical care, it's not always available 24/7. MUSC providers use telehealth — including video visits — to support inmates around the clock. In-person visits to MUSC are reserved for cases that require it. Learn more about correctional facilities and telehealth
