What is a Nurse Advice Line?

Nurse advice lines provide licensed nurses who can assess patients and determine appropriate care using standardized, approved protocols. At the core of IntellaTriage’s services are trained nurses who make informed assessments regarding your patient’s condition based on the patient’s description of symptoms and your corresponding clinical protocols. Our team members utilize industry-standard Schmitt-Thompson protocols in our nurse advice line, ensuring that your patients are directed to the most appropriate level of care.

Nurse Advice Line vs. Nurse Triage

While similar in name, nurse advice lines and nurse triage services differ in many ways. Nurse advice lines seek to direct the patient to the most appropriate level of care, while nurse triage works within an existing plan of care to treat a caller. Nurse advice lines utilize standardized protocols to determine disposition, meaning they are most appropriate for primary care or patient populations that do not focus on chronic conditions.

How Does It Work?

Through the use of gold-standard protocols and the expertise of licensed nurses, IntellaTriage helps your patients access the most appropriate level of care for their needs. Patients calling in speak directly with a licensed nurse in under one minute. We provide a comprehensive summary of the encounter to your office, ensuring no gaps in communication between our team and your staff.
