Bahri expands telemedicine roll-out

Bahri has expanded its relationship with Universal Maritime Solutions (Unimed) by enrolling in the company’s Telemed Plus service.

The agreement builds on an existing relationship between the companies through Unimed’s MedScale medical supply and medical chest management programme.

Through Telemed Plus, Bahri’s crews will have access to clinical support from Unimed healthcare professionals based in Athens, Greece. The service also provides proactive crew healthcare management, pre-embarkation medical examinations and real-time visibility of onboard medical inventories.

Unimed said the system combines clinical support with inventory management and its global distribution network, allowing vessels to address routine medical needs onboard while reducing shoreside medical visits and associated operational disruption.

“When we launched Telemed Plus, our vision was to create a more connected, proactive approach to maritime healthcare,” said Jules Nasso, Senior Vice President, Commercial at Unimed.

“The expansion of our relationship with Bahri demonstrates how that vision is translating into meaningful customer adoption. As operators increasingly look for integrated healthcare and compliance solutions, we’re continuing to expand our platform to help improve crew wellbeing, support operational efficiency, and deliver greater value through our subscription-based services.”
