Eko Telehealth Powers Virtual Cardiac and Pulmonary Exams for Health Systems Operating Over 800 U.S. Hospitals

Live-streaming high-fidelity heart and lung sounds sets a new standard for virtual care, modernized with web-based access and enterprise integration

SAN FRANCISCO, July 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Eko Health, a leader in AI-powered cardiac and pulmonary care, announced today that its telehealth platform is now used by health systems that operate over 800 hospitals across the U.S. By enabling the real-time streaming of high-fidelity heart and lung sounds, Eko is helping virtual care teams deliver more confident frontline diagnostics from anywhere.

To meet the needs of enterprise health systems, Eko recently introduced a fully web-based version of its platform and added single sign-on (SSO) support to simplify access and deployment. The company also joined the American Telemedicine Association (ATA), reinforcing its commitment to supporting open, interoperable virtual care models.

“Eko Telehealth has been a game-changer and enabled our providers to remotely assess heart and lung sounds with clarity and confidence,” said Katie Thorsen, Manager of Virtual Health Operations at Corewell Health. “What began as a necessity has evolved into a cornerstone of our virtual care strategy, helping us deliver high-quality care while addressing staffing shortages and avoiding unnecessary patient transfers.”

Built for flexibility and clinical fidelity, Eko Telehealth supports a wide range of virtual care models — including hospital-at-home, virtual nursing, skilled nursing facilities, school health programs, correctional care, and specialty consults — enabling high-quality auscultation when patients and providers can’t be in the same room.

Eko’s solution delivers real-time streaming of heart and lung sounds, phonocardiograms (PCGs), and ECG waveforms, layered seamlessly into virtual workflows. It is designed to work alongside — not replace — existing video platforms, enabling providers to conduct high-fidelity remote stethoscope exams during live virtual visits.

“Eko Telehealth has become a core pillar of the virtual care tech stack,” said Jason Bellet, Co-founder and Chief Business Officer at Eko Health. “Our high-fidelity heart and lung sound data unlocks new remote exam capabilities and enables hundreds of hospitals to deliver a higher caliber of virtual care across a range of specialties, models, and use cases.”

Eko Telehealth is fully compatible with Eko’s globally deployed stethoscope portfolio, with over 650,000 devices sold to-date — representing the largest connected digital stethoscope network in the world. Built on Eko’s proprietary audio architecture, the solution delivers unmatched sound fidelity, ensuring clinicians can hear with precision even when they’re not physically present. By solving one of virtual care’s biggest limitations — the inability to truly listen — Eko bridges the gap between physical exam and remote visit, bringing diagnostic-grade auscultation to virtually any setting.
