To the Mayors, City Council Members, and City Managers, Dr. Dirk Perritt here, and today I want to address a topic that I know is always at the forefront of your minds – the budget. I also understand that you are constantly looking for innovative ways to maximize your resources while also ensuring the well-being of your residents. That’s why I wanted to discuss the return on investment (ROI) that MD Health Pathways can provide, proving that a partnership with us is not just about community health, but about smart financial decisions for your city, and all with zero cost to the city budget.
Beyond Cost Savings: A Holistic Approach to ROI
I know that in your city you are constantly trying to improve resources while also being good stewards of taxpayer dollars. As a physician, I have a unique appreciation for the fact that healthcare is an essential service, but one that needs to be efficient and cost effective. We understand that you’re not just looking for ways to cut costs, but you’re looking for solutions that can produce real results for your community. We believe that Tap Telehealth is that solution!
Reducing EMS Calls
One of the biggest drains on city resources comes from the overuse of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) for non-emergency situations. When people don’t have access to convenient and affordable care, they often resort to calling 911 for issues that could easily be handled elsewhere. As a result, ambulances and paramedics are often tied up with situations that are not emergencies, which can take them away from the true emergencies that require their skills. With Tap Telehealth, your residents have access to a medical provider from their own home, and this is proven to reduce unnecessary EMS calls, freeing up those valuable resources for true emergencies. With less EMS calls, your city will be able to save significant amounts of money, and all without adding a financial burden to the city!
Increased School Attendance
We know that you are constantly striving to make your schools the best they can be. One of the biggest challenges facing school districts today is absenteeism, as children get sent home for common illnesses. And in many states, like Texas, schools receive funding based on weighted daily average attendance. When Tap Telehealth is able to help get students back in the classroom faster, it directly benefits your schools and helps increase that funding, which allows your schools to provide a better education for your students. With Tap Telehealth we can make sure your schools get all the funding that they deserve, and this doesn’t add any financial burden to the city!
A Healthier Workforce
A healthier workforce is a more productive workforce, and that helps to stimulate the local economy! When employees are not losing time at work from preventable illnesses, they are able to provide for their families while keeping your businesses strong. When local businesses thrive, the entire community thrives! And when we take care of your employees, they have a better chance at staying productive. Tap Telehealth invests in your community by keeping it healthy and working, and this costs the city nothing!
A Real Return on Your Investment – At No Cost to the City
So, what does all this mean for your budget? Let’s break it down:
- Reduced EMS Costs: Less EMS calls for non-emergencies equals decreased expenses for your community’s emergency services and first responders, as those resources can be focused where they are needed most. And this costs the city nothing.
- Increased School Funding: When students are in class, the school districts are better funded, which in turn helps to create a better learning experience for all. And this costs the city nothing.
- A Stronger Local Economy: By helping businesses thrive through a healthier workforce you are increasing economic opportunity for your community, which benefits everyone. And this costs the city nothing.
