Traveling an Audiologist to Provide Otolaryngology Care Using Store-and-Forward Telemedicine
This project increased access to otolaryngology services by having an audiologist travel to remote Alaska and communicate with an otolaryngologist using store-and-forward electronic consultation. The audiologist was instructed to effectively image appropriate parts of the otolaryngology exam and create telemedicine cases that included clinical histories, images, audiograms, tympanograms, otoacoustic emission testing and/or other documents.
