Hosted locally on the client’s network, LincTV’s software includes a user-friendly service portal that allows administrators to manage restrictions, update applications, and clear sign-on credentials upon patient discharge.
Lincata will showcase LincTV at ViVE 2025 (Booth #713), offering attendees a firsthand look at how the solution transforms patient engagement in hospitals. To schedule a meeting or demo, visit www.Lincata.com.
