We are excited to announce that we are now mobile! Our Telehealth Mobile Clinic on wheels will allow patients at all Company facilities to be seen. A schedule of the clinic times and locations will be posted at each facility

The current Telehealth Clinic has operated at Langboard MDF in Willacoochee since July 2019 and is a partnership between The Langdale Company, Miller County Hospital, Chancy Drugs, Clinch Memorial Hospital, and the Global Partnership for Telehealth (GPT).

The clinic is staffed by Jennifer Griffin (TLC Benefit Solutions), Sonny Walker, RN (Employee Health Advocate) a phlebotomist from Clinch Memorial Hospital to provide lab services and a physician or a Nurse Practitioner from Miller County Hospital.

The clinic is available to employees covered by the Company’s Health Plan whether they have a primary care physician or not.

How Does It Work?

The employee may request an appointment by contacting Jennifer Griffin at TLC Benefit Solutions 229-249-0940. Registration paperwork and consent forms will be sent to the employee to complete prior to their first appointment.

An RN will take the patient’s vital signs, review patient symptoms, and then the patient is seen via computer by a Miller County Hospital provider.

The clinic telemedicine equipment is supplied by GPT. The 3M Littman electronic Bluetooth enabled stethoscope allows the physician to hear the patient’s heartbeat in real time. The Horus Scope captures a digital photograph or video of the ear or skin abnormality and provides measurements to track change in size. An EKG machine is available for use as well.

Labs are drawn by a phlebotomist from Clinch Memorial Hospital staff on site at no cost to the employee. Lab results are uploaded to Miller County Hospital’s system and may be forwarded to the employee’s primary care physician upon patient request.
