Telehealth and Transitions of Care Program

Our Neuro Network’s Telehealth Care and Transitions of Care Program will provide longitudinal, specialty-led clinical oversight for adults with acute, chronic, and complex neurological and neurovascular conditions.

This program will address the most vulnerable points in neurological care, particularly during transitions between settings, when patients are at highest risk for fragmentation, missed diagnoses, preventable deterioration, and hospital readmission.

Why This Program Exists

Neurological illness does not pause at discharge or after a single specialty visit. As patients transition between care settings, symptoms evolve, care becomes more complex, and coordination is often fragmented.

This program will exist to provide continuity, synthesis, and neurological oversight across those transitions.

Our Neuro Network's mission, vision, and purpose is deeply personal.

I am both a neuroscience clinician and a patient with an inherited neurometabolic syndrome. My mother shared this condition. In the weeks before her death, she sought emergency care multiple times for neurological symptoms that were repeatedly misunderstood by those without access to knowledge and awareness of her condition working in a constrained system lacking the resources to support her timely diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. Now, I seek in expand knowledge and awareness and revolutionize a constrained system through the initiatives of Our Neuro Network.

My mother did not receive the neurological care she needed. Critical patterns were missed across encounters and care settings. Her untimely death was preventable.

The program I am developing for Our Neuro Network is the one I wish had existed for my mother and for families like my own.

Who We Serve

We will provide specialty care for adults with:

  • Acute neurological events including stroke, neurovascular syndromes, seizures, encephalopathy, and neurocritical illness.

  • Chronic and progressive neurological conditions.

  • Complex neurovascular, neurometabolic, and multisystem neurological disorders, including cerebral venous and cerebrospinal fluid disorders, intracranial hypertension, intracranial hypotension, headache, migraine, and cognitive dysfunction.

  • Patients at high risk for readmission, emergency department utilization, or functional decline during transitions.

Program Focus

This program will support patients across:

  • Acute care hospitalization

  • Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs)

  • Long-term acute care hospitals (LTACs)

  • Assisted living and memory care settings

  • Home-based recovery

The defining feature of this model will be continuity of neurological oversight across care settings.

Scope of Clinical Services

Services may include, but are not limited to:

  • Neuroscience and neurovascular consultation.

  • Transitional and post-acute rounding.

  • Longitudinal neurological care management.

  • Review and synthesis of complex histories, imaging, and diagnostics.

  • Early identification of neurological decline or evolving syndromes.

  • Coordination with interdisciplinary teams.

  • Support for patients and families navigating complex decisions.

  • Strategies to reduce avoidable emergency department visits and hospital readmissions.

All services will be individualized and guided by clinical judgment, current evidence, and patient-specific needs.

Care Philosophy

Neurological disease rarely conforms to a single visit or isolated episode of care. Effective management requires time, pattern recognition, continuity, and synthesis across encounters and environments.

This program will serve as a specialty adjunct, not a replacement for primary care or subspecialty neurology. Whenever possible, Our Neuro Network will collaborate with neurologists, neurosurgeons, primary care clinicians, rehabilitation teams, and facility staff.

Clinical recommendations will be guided by patient need rather than volume, speed, or administrative pressure.

Telehealth and Location

Clinical services will be provided via telehealth to patients physically located in Hawai‘i and Arizona at the time of service, in accordance with licensure and regulatory requirements.

Prescribing and Regulatory Considerations

Prescribing will be conducted in accordance with federal and state law. Controlled substances will be prescribed only when legally permissible and clinically appropriate. Non-controlled medications may be prescribed when indicated.

Emergency Disclaimer

Telehealth services are not appropriate for emergencies. Patients experiencing urgent or emergent symptoms should call 911 or present to the nearest emergency department.

Secure Messaging

Secure messaging via Spruce will be available to established patients for non-urgent communication and care coordination.

Service Philosophy & Availability

Telehealth services will be structured to provide the time, attention, and continuity required for complex neurological care.

Visit volume will be intentionally limited to support thorough evaluation, coordination, and follow-up, particularly for individuals navigating multifaceted or under-recognized conditions.

As a result, care will be specialized and intentionally limited in volume to preserve depth, continuity, and clinical integrity.

Licensure

Clinical services will be provided only in states where appropriate licensure is held. Non-clinical coaching and consulting services will be offered separately.

Insurance & Financial Policy

Our Neuro Network will utilize a hybrid care model that includes both insurance-based and self-pay care options. This structure is designed to expand access, preserve time for complex neurological care, and reduce fragmentation across care settings.

This model will reflect the realities of modern neurological care, where patients with complex conditions often require extended time, coordination, and continuity that traditional reimbursement structures do not consistently support.

Insurance-Based Care

Our Neuro Network is credentialing with and/or contracting with the following insurers in:

Hawai‘i

  • Medicare

  • Hawai‘i Medicaid (Med-QUEST)

  • AlohaCare

  • MDX Hawai‘i

  • University Health Alliance (UHA)

  • HCHA / PSWA

  • TRICARE / TriWest

  • ‘Ohana Health Plan (WellCare)

  • Medicare Advantage plans including Devoted Health, Senior Medical Group, and Pacific Administration Inc.

Arizona

  • Medicare participation is planned.

  • Medicaid (AHCCCS) services will be offered where credentialing and regulatory requirements are met.

  • Commercial insurance plans will be considered out-of-network.

Patients using insurance will be subject to payer-specific coverage requirements, including copayments, coinsurance, deductibles, and prior authorization requirements. Coverage and reimbursement will be determined solely by the payer and the terms of the individual policy.

Self-Pay Care

Self-pay care services will be available for patients who prefer extended visit time, enhanced access, or do not have applicable insurance coverage. Self-pay care will reflect the same clinical standard provided to insured patients. The difference will lie only in the payment structure and flexibility of time, access, and care delivery.

Equitable Access Policy

A limited number of Equitable Access appointments will be available to support individuals experiencing financial barriers. This approach is intended to preserve access, continuity, and clinical safety while maintaining the same standard of care provided to all patients.

Equitable Access rates may be available for individuals who are uninsured, underinsured, or experiencing financial strain related to medical or life circumstances. Requests will be approached in a respectful, confidential, and individualized manner.

In alignment with the values of this practice, requests will be handled with trust and discretion. No extensive documentation will be required.

Availability of Equitable Access options may vary based on service type and clinical context. Determinations will be made thoughtfully and, when applicable, documented in the medical record in accordance with practice policy.

The goal of this approach is to support meaningful access to care while sustaining a limited, high-quality, and patient-centered practice.

Hybrid Model Approach

Patients may choose to utilize insurance, cash pay services, or a combination of both depending on their clinical needs and coverage.

This model will allow:

  • Use of insurance for medically necessary care.

  • Extended or more frequent visits when clinically appropriate.

  • Greater flexibility for complex diagnostic and treatment planning.

  • Continuity across transitions and care environments.

Patient Financial Responsibility

Patients will be responsible for understanding their insurance benefits, including copayments, coinsurance, deductibles, and non-covered services. Patient-responsible amounts are due at the time services are rendered unless other arrangements have been made in advance.

For out-of-network or non-covered services, patients may be provided with a superbill for self-submission to their insurance company for possible reimbursement when permitted by their individual policy. Reimbursement will be determined solely by the patient’s insurance carrier and plan benefits. Our Neuro Network cannot guarantee reimbursement and does not have control over insurance coverage determinations or payment decisions made by your insurance company.

Prior Authorizations

When clinically appropriate, Our Neuro Network may support prior authorization requests or provide medical documentation required by insurers. Approval determinations and timelines are controlled entirely by the insurer and cannot be guaranteed.

Out-of-Network Services

For services not covered by insurance, patients may be responsible for full payment. When appropriate, documentation may be provided to support patient-submitted claims. Submission of documentation will not imply or guarantee reimbursement.

What Our Neuro Network Will Not Do

At Our Neuro Network, clinical and consulting services will be guided by patient-centered care, clinical judgment, and ethical practice. As such:

  • We will not guarantee insurance coverage or reimbursement, as payer decisions are determined independently and vary by plan and circumstance.

  • We will not alter clinical recommendations or care plans to meet payer-driven productivity metrics or administrative demands.

  • We will not limit visit duration, complexity, or depth of evaluation to satisfy external administrative constraints, as each encounter is tailored to the individual’s clinical needs.

Cancellation & Rescheduling Policy

Appointments will be reserved intentionally due to the limited and specialized nature of services provided.

A minimum of 24 hours’ notice will be requested to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Changes may be made using the link provided at the time of scheduling.

We recognize that many individuals we serve are living with complex neurological conditions, including fluctuations in cognition, pain, fatigue, and autonomic function. If you are experience a change in your condition that affects your ability to attend or participate in your appointment, we request that you inform us as soon as you are able.

Late cancellations and missed appointments may result in forfeiture of the session fee or applicable charges, consistent with practice policy. Consideration may be given in the setting of medical or neurological exacerbation.

Payment will be required prior to the start of your session to confirm your appointment.

This policy is intended to support both access to care and responsible allocation of limited clinical resources.
