Teleconsulting in Child Abuse Medicine (TeleCAM™) is a superior and more efficient way for geographically isolated medical providers to collaboratively access, contribute to and share child abuse case material.


TeleCAM Interface for child abuse diagnosis

TeleCAM™ provides the following Key Features:

  • Remote Web-based Access and Real-time Visual Dialog
  • HIPAA Compliant (Secure and Private)
  • Child Abuse Workflow
  • Multiple Image Upload and Annotation
  • Electronic Reporting and Email Notifiers
  • Case Material Managed and Stored in a Database

TeleCAM™ Workflow designed for child abuse diagnosis

How it Works

  1. A practitioner at a remote location securely logs into TeleCAM™, creates consultation record, uploads images and patient data.
  2. Once the consultation record is created TeleCAM™ sends out alerts to other participants notifying them of a pending case review.
  3. A medical specialist with specialized training logs into the system, reviews the case, provides expert diagnosis and closes the case.
  4. Remote location has the option to provide additional input.
  5. A report is generated with final diagnosis and conclusions.
