The American Telemedicine Association has, without a lot of advance fanfare, put together Telehealth Awareness Week this week from Monday 18 through Saturday 24. The purpose of the week is to showcase the many ways virtual care improves access to quality healthcare services for all individuals, including members of rural and underserved communities.

Events both virtual and local are listed here including two later events:  ISfTeH’s Global Connections for Sustainable Telehealth, 6-7 November, in-person in San Jose [TTA 12 Aug], and Forefront 2022: Provider-to-Provider Telemedicine Summit, held virtually on 12 October. The Week’s 53 endorsing and founding partners are also supported by 71 Congressional Policy Champions. ATA release (PDF)
