    Telehealth can be a lifeline between patients and providers by improving access to health care. But it also runs the risk of worsening health care disparities if not implemented or designed for those at the margins. 
     
    The AAMC’s four-part learning series – Advancing Health Equity Through Telehealth – will highlight the role of academic medicine in promoting and advancing health equity through telehealth. 
     
    The first webinar, “How Academic Medicine Can Improve Digital Health Equity and Why It Matters,” will be held April 28 @ 1 p.m. ET. Registration is free.

    Time to register for Webinar 2: Leveraging Data to Drive Change in Telehealth Access Equity, held June 2, 3-4 pm ET

    Many health systems quickly deployed outpatient telehealth services to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic, but this left little time to design and tailor data-driven solutions to address access disparities and meet the needs of all patient populations.

    The next installment in our Advancing Health Equity Through Telehealth Learning Series focuses on how data can be leveraged to understand telehealth’s impact on access to care and drive solutions to ensure equitable access for all patients.
