Tele-specialty programs were built for 1,000-delivery hospitals. Yours isn't one.
If your hospital delivers a few hundred babies a year, you know the math. Traditional tele-MFM and tele-NICU programs carry hourly rates, technology fees, hardware carts, and volume assumptions that were never designed for your budget.
So high-risk moms get transferred out. Families drive hours to deliver with strangers. Your OB, family medicine, and nursery teams carry the highest-acuity moments alone.
And every avoidable transfer is a delivery, a baby, and a family leaving your community. It doesn't have to work that way.
The market didn't fail these hospitals by accident. It priced them out on purpose.
The national tele-specialty vendors built their programs for the hospitals that could pay for them: 1,500-plus delivery programs, Level III and IV centers, big NICUs. That's where the volume was, so that's where the carts, the platform fees, and the enterprise contracts went.
Hospitals delivering a few hundred babies a year got a different deal. Programs too expensive to justify, staffing models that assume a census you don't have, and quotes that cost more than hiring the specialist you couldn't recruit in the first place.
So the smallest delivery units got left to figure it out alone: locum coverage when you can get it, transfer when you can't, and a nursery that sends babies down the highway because nobody built specialist backup at your scale.
Perinatal Link exists because two specialty practices refused to accept that small hospitals should go without specialist care. The gap was a choice. So is closing it.
This is a system problem, with receipts.
The specialists cluster where the volume is. The risk doesn't.
