Connected Care Pilot Program

Federal Communications Commission

Telehealth has assumed a critical role in health care delivery as technology and improved broadband connectivity have enabled patients to access health care services without needing to visit a health care providerโ€™s physical location. Advances in telehealth are transforming health care from a service delivered through traditional brick and mortar health care facilities to connected care options delivered via a broadband Internet access connection directly to the patientโ€™s home or mobile location

Jargon-free version

Helps health care providers cover costs for connected care services, focusing on low-income and veteran patients.
