Start Your Application

What happens after you apply

  • We review for network readiness and follow up for missing items.
  • If aligned, you’re added to our internal network roster for hospital introductions.

FAQ

1. Do you employ physicians?

No. Groups remain independent and contract clinically with hospitals.

2. Do you do credentialing/privileging?

No. Hospitals credential/privilege; we keep your documents organized and “submission-ready.”

3. Do you take a cut of clinical fees?

No. Our fees (if any) are for technology/admin services under a separate agreement with your group.

4. Can a Houston-based physician cover a Dallas hospital?

Yes, if the physician is appropriately licensed and the hospital privileges them.

Use Cases: Building Your Network

ConsultBridge adapts to how care is actually delivered — across locations, specialties, and time zones.

Hub-and-Spoke Care

A large central hospital supports five rural affiliates with Tele-Stroke and Tele-Psych services, keeping patients local while maintaining system-wide continuity of care.

Urgent Care Support

An urgent care chain connects to on-demand ophthalmology specialists to treat eye injuries on-site, reducing unnecessary ER referrals.

Night & Weekend Coverage

A community hospital uses in-house hospitalists during business hours and automatically routes consults to contracted tele-nocturnist partners overnight and on weekends.
