  Virtual Care Services
  The Virtual Care Request form can be used to facilitate requests for the following Virtual Care Business Services & supporting technology:
  - Inpatient: This form may be leveraged for a general inpatient virtual care request, or for a CareTeam Connect request. Care Team Connect is our inpatient suite that focuses on minimizing clinician entry and PPE use, increases access to care, and enables patients the ability to communicate with their loved ones virtually via an iPad that is placed at the patient’s bedside.
  - Virtual Consults: This form may be leveraged for requests relating to real time "Synchronous" Visits between two providers, with or without a patient and with the use of a telehealth cart. The form may be used to:
  - Initiate “New Cart” requests for a new telehealth cart
  - Initiate a “Move” request for an existing telehealth cart
  - Initiate a “Deactivation” request for an existing telehealth cart
  - Provision access to existing users to call into telehealth carts
  - Virtual Visits: A virtual visit is a real time "Synchronous" Visits between a Provider and a Patient. This form may be leveraged for requests for Zoom license for group visits. All other zoom requests/use cases may leverage the following form: Zoom Request Form
  - Other: This form may be leveraged for any other request for the virtual care teams.
  The new Virtual Care Request form follows automated workflow and approval steps dependent upon which requests are made. Please reference the following chart to understand the various workflows included:
  Any suggestions or updates for the form may be submitted over to the "telehealth platform strategy - phs" team which includes the form’s business owners.
