New Campaign Alert!
Telehealth has become critical during the COVID-19 pandemic to enable patients to receive care without unnecessary exposure and to allow physicians to maintain their practices and clinical research. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) temporarily expanded coverage for telehealth services.
The Endocrine Society is asking Congress to provide $50 million in the next COVID-19 relief legislation for the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to support research to study the implementation and outcomes of telehealth expansion. Our intent is to provide evidence to the Congress on the effectiveness of telehealth so we can educate policymakers about the need to make these changes permanent.
Join our campaign today to urge Congress to support telehealth.
