Nurses: turn every visit into a complete consultation
With the MedConnect kit, you perform a complete clinical exam at the patient's home — auscultation, ECG, dermatoscopy, vital signs — while a doctor observes live and makes the diagnosis. The patient no longer needs to travel.
How it fits into your daily workflow
The kit fits in your car trunk. Between regular home visits, you open the kit, start the session, and the doctor is there.
Arrive at patient's home
Open the kit, turn on the tablet. Session starts in 2 minutes.
Doctor joins
The doctor connects via video. They see the patient and guide you.
Clinical exam
You use the devices: stethoscope, ECG, dermatoscope. Data displays in real time for the doctor.
Diagnosis & prescription
The doctor diagnoses, prescribes if needed. The report is generated automatically.
The kit: a portable medical office
6+ connected diagnostic devices
12-lead ECG, digital stethoscope, dermatoscope, otoscope, vital signs monitor, bioanalyzer — all CE-certified and connected to the platform.
Built for the road
Every compartment protects a device. The kit fits in a car trunk, withstands bumps, and deploys in minutes on the patient's table.
All-in-one platform
Video consultation, real-time device data, patient records, prescriptions, billing, AI medical scribe — all in one interface.
Where nurses use MedConnect
Home visits
The mobile nurse brings the kit to the patient's home. In medical deserts, this is sometimes the only access to a doctor. MedConnect turns every nursing visit into a complete medical consultation.
Nursing homes
In nursing homes, the nurse uses the MedConnect cart to examine residents room by room. The coordinating physician or a specialist intervenes remotely.
Nursing clinics and care networks
A nursing clinic equipped with MedConnect becomes a teleconsultation point for the whole territory. Primary care networks fund kits via regional health authority grants.

The nurse's role (RN) in assisted teleconsultation
In an assisted teleconsultation, the nurse stays beside the patient while the doctor intervenes remotely. The nurse performs the clinical acts — digital stethoscope auscultation, ECG, vital signs, dermatoscopy — and transmits the data in real time, giving the remote doctor a genuine clinical exam to base a diagnosis on, which a plain video call cannot.
Nurses in telemedicine: at home and in care facilities
Whether you are a home-based or facility nurse, telemedicine fits into your round: home visits with the kit, room-by-room exams in care homes with the cart, or a teleconsultation point at the practice. The nurse becomes the doctor's clinical relay in the field.
Coding and reimbursement of assisted teleconsultation
Assisted teleconsultation falls under the standard teleconsultation framework: the nurse's assistance can be remunerated and the patient is covered under common-law conditions. For equipment, French health insurance grants €350/yr for video gear and €175/yr for connected devices; care networks can obtain regional health authority funding.

Telecare, assisted teleconsultation, tele-expertise: three distinct acts
The three acts involve different professionals, different equipment and different billing. Here is what separates them.
Telecare: the nurse delivers care remotely, without a doctor
Telecare connects a patient directly with a paramedical professional — nurse, physiotherapist, speech therapist — with no doctor involved. The nurse performs the remote care act: wound monitoring, treatment follow-up, therapeutic support, patient education. The equipment needed is lighter than for assisted teleconsultation: secure video covers many acts, with connected devices added where objective measurement matters.
Assisted teleconsultation: the nurse examines, the doctor diagnoses
This is the act the MedConnect kit was built for. The nurse is physically with the patient and performs the clinical examination — auscultation, 12-lead ECG, vital signs, dermatoscopy — while the remote doctor watches the data live and makes the diagnosis. Two professionals, two billed acts, one appointment for the patient.
Tele-expertise: the nurse requests a specialist opinion
Tele-expertise is an exchange between health professionals, with no patient on the call. The nurse sends an ECG trace, a dermatoscopic image or a set of vitals to a specialist, who returns a written opinion. It is asynchronous: no one has to be available at the same moment. Omnidoc is natively integrated into the MedConnect platform, so an opinion can be requested without switching tools.
