Specialty and emergency care access anywhere
From telestroke in the ED to consults at the bedside and virtual follow-up in the clinic, Solo™ connects patients to specialist expertise in minutes — so care stays timely, and care stays local.
Specialist shortage and its consequences vary widely.
No health system can staff every specialty, at every site, at every hour. So the gaps get filled the expensive way.
The expertise exists somewhere in your network — or in ours. The problem has always been getting it in the room in time.
One access layer, every care setting
Telestroke: where minutes decide outcomes
Stroke care is where virtual specialist access proves itself — and where Teladoc Health built its deepest clinical credibility. Telestroke on Solo puts a stroke-experienced neurologist at the bedside in minutes, supporting rapid assessment, imaging review, and time-critical treatment decisions with your ED team. The result: faster decisions, more patients treated within the therapeutic window, and fewer transfers out of your system.

And stroke is the front door, not the whole house — the same access model extends to neurology, behavioral health, neonatology, and more.
Your specialists, ours, or both
One platform from the ED to the exam room
Specialty and emergency services may have different clinical needs, but they don't need separate technology foundations. Solo connects consults across care settings through one platform, one device family, and one governed infrastructure — giving health systems a foundation they can extend as new needs emerge.
AI isn't a separate product on Solo — intelligence is built across the platform.
It works alongside your virtual nurses — surfacing signals, easing documentation, and lightening everyday workflows. Same room. Same device. New intelligence.
Built for the hospitals that can least afford gaps
For rural and critical access hospitals, specialist access isn't a convenience — it's the difference between treating locally and transferring out. Solo is engineering for realities of rural infrastructure, and with the Rural Health Transformation Program opening a historic funding window, there has never been a better-supported moment to modernize.

Trusted by leading health systems
Start with access. Scale everywhere.
Specialist access is often the first virtual care a system ever deploys — and on Solo, it's never the last. The same device in the ED bay or patient room activates virtual nursing, safety observation, and the platform's AI when you're ready. No new hardware. No new vendor. No starting over.

Still have questions?
What is telestroke and how does it work?
Telestroke uses secure video and connected devices to bring a stroke-experienced neurologist into your ED within minutes — assessing the patient, reviewing imaging, and guiding time-critical treatment decisions alongside your team. For hospitals without around-the-clock neurology coverage, it's often the difference between confident on-site treatment and a transfer that delays care.
What specialties can we access virtually?
Stroke and broader neurology, behavioral health, neonatology, hospitalist and critical care support, and specialty consults across the care continuum — in emergency, inpatient, and ambulatory settings.
Can we use our own specialists, our network, or yours?
Any combination. Build hub-and-spoke coverage with your physicians, supplement with our credentialed network, or blend both — and shift the mix as your staffing evolves.
How does specialist access reduce transfers?
When a specialist can assess a patient on-site within minutes, more patients can be safely treated where they are. That keeps care close to families, protects local revenue, and reserves transfers for the patients who truly need them.
Does this work in bandwidth-limited or rural environments?
Solo is engineered for dependable performance in real-world conditions, including bandwidth-constrained rural sites — and it anchors modernization plans eligible under rural health funding programs.
How is this different from single-service telemedicine vendors?
A telestroke-only or behavioral-health-only vendor solves one gap and creates a silo. Access on Solo shares a platform and device family with virtual nursing, safety observation, and built-in AI — so your first use case builds the foundation for every one that follows.
