Sixteen organizations launched a public education campaign to protect access to telehealth called Telehealth Access for America.
The members include the American Hospital Association (AHA), Johns Hopkins Medicine, Athenahealth, AARP and Ascension.
“Access to telehealth is vital to Americans’ well-being and quality of life,” AHA President and CEO Rick Pollack said in a press release. “Without action from Congress, millions of Americans who have come to rely on telehealth services will lose access to the care they value.”
