Policy & Research

We support building the telehealth evidence base to inform telehealth policies.

What do we do?

Our programs work to build the telehealth evidence base through discovering, testing, implementing, and disseminating telehealth services. The programs that support these efforts include the telehealth centers of excellence, telehealth networks, and telehealth research centers.
