Teen Vaping ECHO

Description of the video:

Project ECHO is a performance optimizer. Think of it as a high speed internet connection for the

                                    healthcare system. It spreads new medical knowledge throughout the healthcare system from university

                                    medical centers and other specialty sites to the front lines of community care. Rather than information

                                    flowing in one direction, community providers learn from specialists, they learn from each other, and

                                    specialists learn from community providers as new best practices emerge. Under ECHO, community providers

                                    use video technology to participate in guided practice with specialist mentors. They acquire new skills that

                                    allow them to treat patients that they otherwise would have referred out. Patients with complex chronic

                                    conditions get high quality care where they live from providers they know. No waiting months to see a

                                    specialist. No long drives back and forth to get critical care. ECHO exponentially increases access to

                                    specialty care by moving knowledge instead of moving patients. Suffering and pain are reduced, and lives

                                    are improved and even saved. Project ECHO - changing the world fast.
