Presents:
The Urgent Need for Action:
Telehealth Protections Vital for Patients & Providers Nationwide
Join Telehealth Access for America (TAFA) for our upcoming in-person briefing to hear lawmakers and panelists provide expert insights on the critical value of telehealth and urgent need for congressional action to safeguard access to virtual care.
The event will feature remarks from Congressman Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA-01), followed by a discussion on how access to virtual care, made possible by flexibilities first issued during the pandemic and extended by Congress in 2022, is vital for consumers and the future of health care.
RSVP to join us during this particularly critical time as lawmakers must act on solutions to protect access to virtual care, without onerous restrictions, before the end of the year to avert a potential telehealth cliff for millions of patients.
Lunch will be provided.
We have planned this event to comply with applicable ethics rules so that U.S. House and Senate Members and staff may accept free attendance. All government employees are encouraged to contact their applicable ethics officials for guidance to ensure their attendance is permissible.
