Mitel’s VCCS empowers patient-centric care by delivering a complete turn-key virtual telehealth solution between healthcare professionals, patients, and their family members. By leveraging modern browser-based technologies, VCCS delivers easy-to-use e-consultations that require no software downloads. It offers a multimodal experience that includes encrypted voice and video communication, rich chat, screen sharing, and secure file sharing without being tied to any specific technology model.

For frontline healthcare workers, VCCS streamlines corresponding workflows, including patient monitoring, scheduling, and secure medical record system access, through key integrations backed by robust protocols. Images and notes can be recorded and stored with a patient's consent, providing helpful information for ongoing diagnostics and follow-up care. This helps optimize clinical work plans, staff productivity, and patient outcomes.

"We are thrilled to receive this recognition for VCCS," said Martin Bitzinger, Senior Vice President, Product Management at Mitel. “Whether implemented on-premises, in a private or public cloud, or a hybrid environment, VCCS is designed to fully leverage modern communication solutions to deliver flexible and accessible patient-centered care. Combined with extensive healthcare-specific integrations and multimodal capabilities, it allows hospitals, clinics, and care facilities to deliver seamless and secure virtual communication while fostering enhanced collaboration."

The mission of the annual RemoteTech Breakthrough Awards program is to conduct the industry’s most comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the top technology companies, solutions, and products in the remote technology industry today. This year’s program attracted thousands of nominations from over 15 different countries throughout the world.

“VCCS streamlines clinical access and allows healthcare teams to work more efficiently by orchestrating and digitizing routine procedures, reducing overhead costs and adoption friction. In our modern healthcare environment, providers face numerous challenges that compromise the quality of patient engagement, from cost constraints to communication barriers,” said Bryan Vaughn, Managing Director of RemoteTech Breakthrough Awards. “By prioritizing patients and leveraging technology, VCCS redefines remote healthcare engagement and ensures providers deliver high-quality, specialized care regardless of geographical constraints. We're proud to award Mitel with 'Virtual Workspace Platform of the Year!’”
