    The AAMC seeks to recognize and highlight the efforts of AAMC member institutions that are advancing health care equity through telehealth and health technology in new and effective ways, and promote new and expanded work in this space.

    Through the AAMC's Telehealth Equity Catalyst (TEC) Awards and new TEC Pilot Grants, AAMC member institutions are encouraged to nominate programs that demonstrate a positive impact on barriers associated with telehealth and health technology through two tracks: clinical delivery and/or medical education programs. 

    TEC Pilot Grant proposals must show how they will overcome barriers to care via telehealth and a sustainable impact that promotes health and health care equity.

    Submissions will be accepted through May 6.

    Additional information on the TEC and TEC Pilot Grants is available.

    Curious about what makes a great nominee?  Check out last year's winners, like #WayneStateUniversity.

    @Richard Baker, @Senthil Kumar Rajasekaran, @Margit Chadwell, @Christopher Steffes, @Simone Brennan, @Susan Hanchett-Nowinski - we'd love for you to share more about this grant and how it helped you beyond the amazing work you've done with GET Access (Geriatric Education on Telehealth)
