From April 30 – May 21, 2021, the Center for Connected Health Policy (CCHP) held its second Telehealth & Medicaid webinar series with nearly 1,000 attendees across the four webinars. With nine Medicaid programs participating, the purpose of the Spring Series was to examine specific areas of telehealth policy and their impacts on particular patient populations. The Telehealth & Medicaid webinar series will return this Fall and will take place in September/October focusing on topics such as audio-only, policies that have been made permanent, and the Medicaid program’s reasoning for those decisions. Please stay tuned for updates on confirmed speakers for the Fall series.
