Walter Reed Bethesda Opens Hub in Joint Tele-Critical Care Network
A screen shot from Walter Reed Bethesda's hub in the Joint Tele-Critical Care Network shows how it can connect with Naval Medical Center San Diego as part of the JTCCN. Walter Reed National Military Medical Center opened its hub in the JTCCN May 25. “The JTCCN is a tele-critical care platform created by Naval Medical Center San Diego (NMCSD) with intensivists privileged via the Virtual Medical Center Front Office to treat critically-ill patients at military treatment facilities (MTFs) throughout the Military Health System (MHS). JTCCN meets most accreditation requirements for access to critical care physicians [and] critical care expertise,” explained Army Maj. (Dr.) Nikhil Huprikar, chief of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine Service at WRNMMC.
