Exploring Asynchronous Telehealth and its Critical Role within our Evolving Healthcare System

Asynchronous telehealth allows patients and providers to communicate and exchange important health information when it’s most convenient for them, whereas synchronous telehealth interactions require patients and providers to communicate in “real-time.” The usage of asynchronous telehealth had accelerated quickly during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. It has now become a critical component of our evolving healthcare system.

This webinar will:

• Explore asynchronous telehealth, its importance within the healthcare ecosystem, and the benefits these technologies provide for millions of Americans
• Distinctions between historical “online questionnaires” of the early 2000s and the comprehensive asynchronous platforms of today
• Discuss recent policy updates at the federal and state levels and how policymakers can support asynchronous telehealth to expand access
