Press Release: Telehealth Pod Launches at Missoula Public Library
For Immediate Release
MISSOULA, Mont. – A groundbreaking health initiative has arrived at the Missoula Public Library, providing families with enhanced access to pediatric care. The newly introduced telehealth pod offers a private, soundproof space where families can consult with Montana pediatricians via video calls, all within the library’s tranquil environment.
The pod is equipped with an iPad for seamless consultations, and appointments can be easily scheduled online. Library staff are on hand to assist families in using this innovative resource. Dr. Chelsea Bodnar, CEO of Montana Pediatrics, highlighted the program’s inclusivity, stating, "Concerns about paying for a visit should never hinder access to help." The clinic accepts all insurance plans and offers financial assistance to those without insurance or with cost concerns.
Open during regular library hours, the telehealth pod is available to any family seeking pediatric care. This pilot program could pave the way for similar initiatives in other communities, aiming to eliminate barriers to healthcare access such as scheduling conflicts and transportation issues.
The Missoula Public Library’s new telehealth service marks a significant leap towards making healthcare more accessible for families.
