The IPCS Difference
Unlike firms simply selling telehealth products as a gateway or economic solution, IPCS sees the technology as a tool to stay connected with patients throughout the channels of care. And IPCS has the inside experience needed to implement different telehealth services in complex organizations and environments. Jean McCormick, IPCS’s founder has over fifteen years as a nurse educator and telehealth innovation leader.

Jean McCormick, RN, MSN
Jean McCormick is a telehealth innovator, educator, and advocate with 15 years of leadership experience in healthcare and telemedicine. She founded Innovative Patient Care Solutions to continue her work transforming clinical practice through the widespread use of secure technology. Jean applies her previous experience as a paralegal and clinical researcher and her broad knowledge of credentialing, billing and reimbursement, FDA compliance, and telemedicine solutions and onboarding to help clients address the needs of specific patient populations and improve outcomes.
Before founding Innovative Patient Care Solutions, Jean served as the Clinical Nurse Educator for the Telehealth Services program at OHSU (Oregon Health and Science University). She invented the Warm Video Handover, a HIPAA-compliant program using iPad technology that improves communication and collaboration among nurses transferring patients from the hospital to skilled nursing facilities. Additionally, she played a key role in implementing and monitoring numerous large-scale telemedicine initiatives at OHSU, including several hub and spoke projects requiring collaboration with partnering facilities throughout Oregon.
A recognized telemedicine expert, Jean has advised on national health policy and has published articles in several industry journals. She has spoken at conferences for the American Telemedicine Association, the American Case Management Association, the Telehealth Alliance of Oregon, and other professional associations.
As a complement to her consulting work, Jean teaches yoga and is exploring ways to use telehealth to bring the benefits of mindfulness, yoga and gentle movement to people with limited access due to income or mobility limitations.
