American Medical Association: AMA Issues Blueprint for Optimizing Digitally Enabled Care

AMA released a Blueprint for Optimizing Digitally Enabled Carewhich describes six pillars that can help optimize digital health practices. AMA notes that investments, technology adoption, and patient needs play a significant role in how digitally enabled care evolves and how it can be used to improve access and care quality. Specifically, state lawmakers and regulators should support coverage of telehealth on the same basis as in-person care, equitable payment for virtual care, and narrow exceptions to licensure for out-of-state physicians providing ongoing care to an existing patient via telehealth.
