Time Warner Cable tests suite of telehealth offerings in Maine

Steve Hards

Time Warner Cable Business Class has begun a trial of healthcare services in Maine, offering health providers the ability to communicate with each other and patients over a secure community intranet. The unimaginatively named Time Warner Healthcare Solutions provides a secure connection to Maine’s health information exchange offered by HealthInfoNet and includes web conferencing through Cisco WebEx. The introduction of remote vital signs monitoring is planned later. Paul S Schonewolf, the New England area vice president for Time Warner Cable said “Maine has always been a place where Time Warner Cable has trialed new products and services because of the state’s demographics and the fact that Mainers are early adapters [sic] of technology”.
