It seems like just yesterday many health systems didn’t consider implementing telehealth solutions to enable virtual patient visits as part of their overall care delivery strategy. There were many reasons for that—health systems weren’t bought-in on the ROI, they were concerned about clinician adoption and clinical efficacy, and they were unaware of whether patients would be interested in engaging with providers virtually. In 2020, there was a seismic shift across payers, providers, and patients alike due to the COVID-19 pandemic, forever changing the telehealth landscape and opening new doors for the future.

What you'll learn:

• Specific examples and strategies for success with remote patient monitoring and telehealth
• Reimbursement changes that went into effect in 2020 and what will remain with the 2021 Physician Fee Schedule released by CMS
• What the “new normal” looks like as the COVID-19 vaccine rolls out—and tactics for payers and providers
• How telehealth will expand into a myriad of patient populations previously untapped for such virtual care delivery options
