2010: A Big Year for Telemedicine

Over the past year, public interest in—and support of—telemedicine has grown dramatically. Telemedicine is now widely recognized as an integral part of modern quality healthcare. Technology has continued to improve, giving healthcare providers an array of increasingly-powerful tools to improve care and control costs. Patients are embracing telemedicine, using smart phones, internet applications, remote monitoring devices and social media to manage their own healthcare. The federal government invested heavily in telemedicine via the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, and telehealth provisions are being incorporated into current healthcare reform proposals. Even private payers have jumped on board, as a growing number of insurers provide coverage for telemedicine services.
