Telehealth-enabled operational redesign for emergency care

We help health systems redesign emergency care flow using physician-led virtual care models across the continuum: from prehospital triage to ED arrival, in-ED throughput, and post-discharge follow-up.

The Challenge

Most ED bottlenecks start before the patient ever reaches a bed. Health systems do not just have a telehealth opportunity, they have an emergency operations problem: long door-to-provider times, left-without-treatment leakage, low-acuity bottlenecks, fragmented follow-up, and avoidable EMS transports create operational drag at the most expensive front door in the system.

ETS helps redesign that front door by moving care earlier, reducing delay, and recovering value with telehealth-enabled clinical workflows.

Flow

Front-door congestion

Delayed time to provider

Walkouts & leakage

Throughput

Low-acuity bottlenecks

Inconsistent patient experience

System

Inefficient EMS routing

Fragmented follow-up

Underutilized virtual care infrastructure

Virtual Provider in Triage (VPIT)
Reengineering the ED front door

Virtual Provider in Triage (VPIT) places a licensed provider at the front of the ED arrival using telehealth. Instead of waiting to be roomed, patients get an early exam, orders, and decisions within minutes.

The result is simple: the waiting room becomes an active clinical zone, not a passive queue.

Faster door-to-provider

Earlier workup

Reduced walkouts

Improved patient experience

Better low-acuity throughput

Better front-end
risk management

Revenue recapture

Centralized staffing

“VPIT is not telehealth software. It’s a front-door redesign of emergency care delivery.”

How ETS works

ETS works with health systems to design, implement, and optimize telehealth-enabled emergency models. We help translate strategy into operational workflows—not just concepts.

Step 1: Assess - front-door flow, leakage, staffing, throughput. Step 2: Design - workflow, inclusion, staffing, escalation, KPIs.
Step 3: Implement - pilot launch, optimization, scale-up.

Ideal for health systems seeking practical implementation—not generic telehealth consulting.

About ETS

Built by emergency physicians who understand the operational realities of frontline care, ETS was founded by physicians who designed and implemented telehealth-driven ED workflows. Our work is grounded in clinical operations, not abstract innovation language.

We focus on models that improve flow, expand access, reduce waste, and create measurable value for health systems.
