Proprietary Technology Expands Access, Enhances Safety, and Redefines How Care Is Delivered Inside Correctional Facilities
CFG Health has announced the launch of CareLink™, a fully integrated, 24/7 telehealth platform purpose-built for correctional healthcare environments. The launch represents a significant advancement in AI in healthcare and technology-enabled medical services, strengthening access, safety, and continuity of care for incarcerated patients nationwide.
Building on more than two decades of leadership in correctional telemedicine, CFG Health developed CareLink as a proprietary, in-house platform that integrates secure virtual care infrastructure, modern tablet technology, and clinically governed workflows tailored specifically for correctional facilities. The system operates on existing security-issued tablets, enabling seamless implementation without adding operational or security burdens.

CareLink provides HIPAA-compliant access to a comprehensive range of healthcare services, including emergency triage, primary care, behavioral health, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), specialty care, dental services, nursing care, group therapy, patient education, and re-entry support. The platform supports both scheduled appointments and on-demand consultations, ensuring 24/7 access to medical professionals.
Unlike standalone telehealth tools, CareLink operates within CFG Health’s established clinical governance, credentialing, and quality oversight framework. This integrated approach ensures that telehealth delivery aligns with accountable care models, quality standards, and patient safety requirements in correctional healthcare systems.
“CareLink is not simply a technology solution. It is an extension of how CFG Health delivers care,” said Brandon De Julius, Chief Executive Officer of CFG Health. “It is clinically led, operationally integrated, and purpose-built to support access, safety, and continuity of care in correctional settings.” Under De Julius’ leadership, CFG Health continues to position itself at the forefront of secure, scalable telehealth innovation in highly regulated healthcare environments.
Correctional facilities often face persistent workforce shortages, high patient volumes, and complex security logistics that can delay medical treatment. CareLink addresses these challenges by reducing unnecessary patient movement, limiting off-site transport requirements, and enabling rapid virtual assessments in urgent or emergent situations. This approach supports emergency medicine coordination while helping facilities optimize in-house resources and reduce avoidable emergency transfers.
Facilities utilizing the CareLink platform have reported improved access to care, shorter wait times, and fewer patient grievances related to service availability. Operational efficiencies and enhanced security workflows further strengthen the value proposition of this AI-enabled healthcare infrastructure.
As healthcare systems increasingly adopt AI in healthcare and digital transformation strategies, CFG Health’s CareLink demonstrates how secure telehealth platforms can modernize correctional medical services while maintaining strict compliance and governance standards. The company plans to expand CareLink’s capabilities further, reinforcing its commitment to innovation, accountable care delivery, and measurable patient outcomes in correctional healthcare settings.
