Our Project Involvement

As a technology implementation partner, we actively support, accompany, and help shape innovative pilot projects. Here, you will find an overview of exciting projects funded by the National Association of Statutory Health Insurance Funds (GKV‑Spitzenverband), as well as funding programmes in Baden‑Wuerttemberg, whose stories and experiences we are pleased to share with you.

Baden-Wuerttemberg Funding Programme

Baden‑Wuerttemberg Is Advancing Care Innovation – We Provide the Technology

A funding programme of the State of Baden‑Wuerttemberg is supporting six projects focused on the further development of televisits in care facilities, with a total funding volume of approximately €1.7 million.
We are proud to be involved as the technology partner in three of these pilot projects. Our goal: to enable medical care that is digital, reliable, efficient, and accessible close to where people live.

Dr. Telvi – General Practitioner Care in a Complex Care Facility Through Televisits

Project Lead: Tibor Vetter, Wohlfahrtswerk für Baden‑Wuerttemberg
Project Duration: September 2024 – December 2025

Care facilities are increasingly facing the challenge that general practitioner practices in their surrounding area are no longer accepting new patients. At the same time, access to primary medical care remains essential for many nursing home residents. This is where the project led by the Wohlfahrtswerk für Baden‑Wuerttemberg comes in. Its objective is to strengthen medical care through the use of televisits and thereby ensure sustainable access to healthcare services in the long term.

Using the TeleDoc‑Mobile, medical appointments can be conducted directly within the facility without requiring physicians to travel on site. Nursing staff receive targeted training, take on the role of medical assistants during the consultation, and support the digital examination process. Televisits are intended to facilitate faster communication with physicians and reduce travel requirements while maintaining a consistently high standard of care.

The project involves residents of Haus am Kappelberg in Fellbach, including those living in the nursing home as well as participants in assisted living, short‑term care, and day care programmes. Medical care is provided in close cooperation with Dr. Fellbach General Practice, which conducts the televisits.

Televisits in the Lake Constance District (Bodenseekreis)

Project Leads: Elena Dreher, Nicole Pottharst, Bodenseekreis District Administration
Project Duration: November 2024 – December 2025

The objective of this project is to establish televisits as a permanent component of healthcare delivery. By reducing travel requirements, shortening response times in the event of health concerns, and strengthening primary care services, televisits have the potential to significantly improve patient care. Using mobile devices and televisit technology, physicians will be able to connect with patients via video consultation and collaborate with on-site nursing staff to make informed clinical decisions.

During the pilot phase, which will run until the end of 2025, care facilities and medical practices in Meckenbeuren, Kressbronn, Neukirch, Deggenhausertal, and Friedrichshafen will participate in the project. The initiative is supported by the local public health authority and two healthcare researchers from the district administration.

The long-term goal is to integrate televisits into standard healthcare services and make them available throughout the entire district, providing a digital building block for reliable, local, and accessible healthcare in rural areas.

HeimDoc (Reutlingen)

Project Lead: Reutlingen District Clinics (Kreiskliniken Reutlingen)
Project Duration: 01 June 2024 – 31 August 2025

With the HeimDoc project, the Medical Care Centre II (MVZ II) of Reutlingen District Clinics is bringing modern telemedicine directly into care facilities. The aim is to make medical care for people in need of care more efficient, faster, and more sustainable through digital healthcare structures.

At the heart of the project is telemedical care delivered via teleconsultations using the TeleDoc‑Mobile. The system combines video consultations with modern diagnostic technologies such as ECGs, digital stethoscopes, and portable ultrasound probes. Medical instructions and treatment decisions are documented digitally immediately after each televisit, both in the physician information system and in the care facility’s electronic patient record.

The participating physicians combine digital consultations with regular on-site visits to the facilities. The project is being implemented in close cooperation with RAH Reutlinger AltenHilfe gGmbH and BruderhausDiakonie Reutlingen.

Thanks to its modular design, HeimDoc has been developed to allow additional care facilities and office-based physicians to be integrated in the future. The project is funded by the State of Baden‑Wuerttemberg and forms part of a broader programme aimed at advancing the digitalisation of care services across the region.
