Presenters: Gina Bertolini, Leah Richardson, Lindsey Rogers-Seitz

In this week’s episode, Gina Bertolini, Lindsey Rogers-Seitz and Leah Richardson discuss a number of efforts undertaken by Congress and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in recent weeks to expand the availability of telehealth services for the U.S. patient population in order to prevent unnecessary patient-provider contact and help combat the spread of COVID-19. The presenters discuss the scope and intended outcome of these efforts, as well as how these changes in access to telehealth services might continue going forward.
