While the pandemic has increased support and attention around the role of telehealth in strengthening our health care system, the pandemic has also highlighted many remaining barriers and infrastructure issues that inherently inhibit telehealth’s continued growth and utilization. Those existing issues have subsequently increased the role of funding in telehealth policy. While federal lawmakers have yet to make substantial telehealth policy changes, there have been many recent investments that look to accelerate telehealth adoption and expand its reach to all communities.
When the COVID-19 pandemic began and a sharp pivot towards telehealth was made, policymakers quickly realized that not everyone would have access to video technology. Audio-only was quickly allowed as a modality to deliver services. Now, policymakers are deciding whether the temporary audio-only policies should be made permanent. During this webinar, panelists will discuss what their Medicaid programs may decide, or have already decided, to do.
