BLUEBIRD MEDIA, L.L.C.
BlueBird Media's Northern Missouri Ultra-High Capacity high speed internet access project , a public-private partnership among local service providers and regional cooperatives, the state of Missouri, and national equipment vendors, proposes to bring high-speed Internet access to a largely underserved and/or economically distressed 59-county region in the northern part of the state. The project plans to enable health care institutions to initiate regional health information exchanges and foster telehealth adoption, along with advanced medical imaging and medical collaboration in rural areas. The project would also utilize telehealth to allow regional correctional facilities to limit costly inmate transport and reduce security risks. The project's network also plans to enable significant online testing for students, distance education, and other e-learning technologies.
