DALLAS, March 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Securus Technologies, a leading provider of civil and criminal justice technology solutions for public safety, investigation, corrections and monitoring, announced today that it has launched a product division to focus attention on the medical operations of jails and prisons. 

Products and services marketed under this newly formed group include Uniek EMR, our electronic medical records software application, and Televisit, our recently acquired application that allows some medical reviews to be done via videoconferencing.
