Program and eligibility
Maine DHHS implementation partner MCD Global Health lists this as a Grant for rural-serving Maine primary care organizations and participating accountable-care partners capable of secure specialty consultation workflows. This grant helps primary-care organizations adopt synchronous real-time clinician-to-clinician consultations and asynchronous electronic specialty consultations, supporting secure referrals, provider onboarding, training, clinical documentation, escalation, care coordination, and clinical performance reporting. MCD asks applicants to serve rural Maine populations and demonstrate secure clinical workflow and privacy/reporting capacity. It is a separate applicant grant from the similarly named specialty telehealth provider Partner Service Agreement (vendor procurement).
