Avel eCare

Avel eCare is proud and excited to announce the acquisition of Amwell Psychiatric Care, a division of Amwell (NYSE: AMWL). This acquisition further solidifies Avel's position as a national leader in telemedicine and expands the Behavioral Health services to meet the growing demand across rural and urban communities.   “Together, we are equipping hospitals, health systems, and communities with the tools to address critical healthcare challenges more efficiently and effectively, not just in Behavioral Health but across a broad spectrum of needs,” said Avel CEO, Doug Duskin.   Telehealth has emerged as a vital solution, breaking down barriers of stigma and access to connect patients with the care they need. This alignment strengthens the service delivery and expands Avel's footprint to now serve over 45 states.    “Their (Avel) expertise in telehealth and shared commitment to innovation make them the ideal organization to carry forward this important work. We look forward to exploring collaborative ways to serve patients and communities together,” Chairman and CEO of Amwell, Ido Schoenberg, M.D. stated.   To read full press release: https://lnkd.in/gMf_TYkc   #acquisition #telemedine #telehealth #innovation #highqualitycare #nationalhealthsupport #mentalhealthsupport

"Director Sheila Freed says last year the company (Avel eCare School Health) provided around 40,000 virtual visits. She says about 25,000 of those were for students with Type 1 Diabetes." At Avel eCare, we support rural communities with school nursing coverage to K-12 schools to ensure immediate response to student needs. Many times, these needs are helping to manage chronic health conditions such as Type 1 diabetes. "[Kristy] Landenberger says that knowing that her daughter and the other two students with Type 1 Diabetes at the school have access to a trained professional puts her mind at ease." We are proud to partner with Louis L'Amour School and other schools throughout the nation to make sure each school has the support of a licensed nurse, ensuring every student's health needs are met.
