Triumphs & Tensions of the Telehealth Boom

This event has passed. April 7 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm Event Description Until recently, telehealth services were expensive, rarely available, and often of limited scope and quality. But the COVID-19 pandemic forced a rapid, radical expansion. To promote the adoption of telehealth services, the Office for Civil Rights within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) relaxed the requirement that providers communicate with patients through HIPAA-compliant platforms. Health care providers took their services online, and novel platforms connecting patients with providers proliferated. In short order, telehealth became more accessible and less expensive. From general practice specialties, such as family medicine, to highly specialized fields, such as dermatology, patients can now access a variety of services through websites and smartphone apps.
