OSU Center for Health Sciences President Johnny Stephens joined Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma Chief Gary Batton and other representatives of the Choctaw Nation Health Services Authority and OSU Virtual Care at the ribbon cutting ceremony of the new Antlers Community Health Clinic. This clinic will operate with a limited onsite staff, while health care providers remotely manage patient care through innovative virtual technology.
In partnership with the McIntosh County OSU Extension Office, OSU Medicine is bringing its mobile Virtual Care Clinic to Checotah.
In order to bridge the gap of health care access that is much needed in Oklahoma, OSU Medicine is utilizing the latest technologies to bring the expertise of its physicians directly to rural hospitals across the state.
Board-certified emergency medicine physicians from Oklahoma State University Medicine will now be working in the emergency department at McAlester Regional Health Center.
