Using innovation to influence a change for good

When more people have easier access to quality health care, more communities will thrive. That goal inspires JoinCareTeam to provide optimized care solutions for underserved patients.

Powered by Certintell Telehealth, JoinCareTeam’s services and technology aid clinical workflows in providing the best possible care in order to improve the health, happiness, and livelihood of everyone we serve.

Patient-centered

  • Through credentialed doctors, nurses and certified clinical health coaches, we support patients on their journey to better health.
  • Additional care team members may include peer advocates, social workers, interpreters and other health care support staff as needed.

Behavior-focused

  • Together, patients will work with their care team to create an individualized plan of action and carefully track progress over time to determine health trends.
  • Our essential care management solutions use specific workflows to improve health outcomes and reduce hospital admissions for patients with, or at risk for, chronic conditions and behavioral health issues.

Technology-driven

  • Our web-first telehealth portal provides individuals from various backgrounds access to health care from any device, anywhere.
  • Via computer or smartphone, patients will be able to connect to a team of experts (including up to 4-way calls) who will tailor a care plan specifically to them.

Our patient-centered services include:

  • Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM)
  • Remote Therapeutic Monitoring (RTM)
  • Health Risk Assessment (HRA)
  • Annual Wellness Visit (AWV)
