Global Operational Resources Group offers three levels of guaranteed* 24/7/365 physician reach-back capability to ensure the highest quality medical direction, treatment orders, and coordination of care.
- Audio Physician Medical Control
- Audio/Data Stream Physician Medical Control - In addition to audio includes fax-forward -back and data telemetry e.g. EKG telemetry and real time patient monitoring data.
- Audio/Data Stream/Video Conferencing Physician Medical Control - Direct examination of patients via video, transmission of x-ray and ultrasound video, and much freer communication with on the ground medical providers.
Direct physician contact can clarify a situation, direct intervention, minimize unnecessary evacuations, and trigger the transport decision before serious situations become critical. Many evacuations prove in retrospect to be unnecessary. The cost of a single unnecessary medical evacuation far outweighs the cost of a full year of our physician medical control service, and of course the cost of a life or limb saved cannot be measured.
