Telemedicine: Satellite Internet
Delivers Care – Anywhere
People living in rural communities have long faced challenges in accessing the best healthcare possible. In fact, 40% of rural residents travel 30 minutes or more just to receive medical care of any type.
Skycasters is dedicated to helping remedy that situation.
Our broadband satellite Internet service can significantly improve the quality of medicine you provide your rural patients. Our telemedicine solutions allow quick sharing of digital images, such as X-rays, mammographies and CT scans with consulting physicians in urban medical centers. You can also share data such as EEG, EKG or video feeds, and hold two-way audio and video conferences.
Why wait?
