Sierra7-AvaSure Team to Support VHA Telecare Program Under $65M IDIQ Contract

A team of Sierra7 and AvaSure will help the Veterans Health Administration implement a clinical monitoring system for the agency’s telehealth initiative under a five-year, $65 million contract.

Sierra7 said Wednesday it will provide AvaSure’s TeleSitter remote patient observation platform to the VHA’s TeleCare Companion initiative to help agency technicians to monitor as many as 38 hospital patients from a workstation.

Twenty-one Department of Veterans Affairs medical facilities nationwide use TeleSitter, with the Cincinnati VA Medical Center being the first one to adopt the technology in 2017.

Under the contract, Sierra7 plans to support VHA in efforts to assess sites, install equipment and perform help desk, training, reporting and maintenance work for the program.
