mHealth Intelligence: Stakeholders Call for Continued Access to Telehealth

Researchers from the Center for Connected Medicine (CCM) and KLAS believe that continuing access to telehealth will enhance the future of health care. As the COVID-19 pandemic becomes more normalized, many hospitals have terminated in-person care for non-emergency visits. However, CCM states that, currently, 20 percent of all appointments are virtual. The findings within a CCM report concluded that maintaining affordable costs and managing the health of patient populations are two benefits that telehealth provides.
