Welcome to Joint Medical Specialists

As you may know, transporting incarcerated individuals offsite for specialist evaluations is expensive, labor-intensive, and comes with increased security risk.  What we do is bring board-certified specialists such as orthopedics, cardiologists, dentists, and neurologists directly into facilities to evaluate individuals on-site, reducing costs, saving your team time, and improving care all at once.  We also handle documentation, follow-ups, and surgical coordination so that your medical team isn't overloaded with referrals and your security team isn't tied up with outside transports.

First the incarcerated individuals submit a sick call request as per jail policy.  Medical staff then evaluate and refer accordingly.  Alternatively individuals may also be added to specialist work list after returning from the hospital.  Next our specialist visits the facility and reviews the task list.  They then perform evaluations and treat the individuals on the task list.  Encounter notes are documented in the EMR or paper chart and the specialist orders follow-ups, imaging, therapy, or surgery.  All without any strain on the facility!

Billing is transparent and without any minimum charges or other deceptive practices.  We charge per individual visits, so you only pay for what we do.  This ensures that our model reduces costs, labor, and liability for the facilities which we serve while elevating wellness and avoiding delays in care for their populations.  Jails are billed biweekly for services rendered.
