WATCH NOW: The Telehealth Cliff: What’s at Stake for Consumers Without Permanent Solutions to Safeguard the Value of Virtual Care

Apr 16, 2024

In case you missed it, Telehealth Access for America (TAFA) hosted a webinar last week, “The Telehealth Cliff: What’s at Stake for Consumers Without Permanent Solutions to Safeguard the Value of Virtual Care,” with a phenomenal panel of leaders in health care and remarks from two Members of Congress, U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and U.S. Representative Mike Thompson (D-CA-04). Watch the full event here:

The panel shared insights on the critical value of telehealth for consumers and discussed how access to virtual care, made possible by flexibilities first issued during the pandemic and extended by Congress in 2022, is at risk. Panelists highlighted the urgency for lawmakers to enact permanent protections for access to virtual care, without onerous restrictions, to avert a potential telehealth cliff for millions of patients, as these flexibilities are set to expire at the end of the year.
