Telehealth is an essential part of healthcare delivery – and has been upheld as a bipartisan issue, with support from both political parties and across two presidential administrations. But telehealth is now in jeopardy due to political forces threatening to stop a vital year-end funding package that includes multi-year extensions to vital flexibilities that would allow for uninterrupted access to needed virtual care services. Countless Americans rely on telehealth for their care yet, without swift action, access to virtual care programs could expire in mere days. #Telehealth #HealthcareAccess President-elect Trump enacted these flexibilities during his first administration, and we are confident that his incoming administration will show the same support for extending essential telehealth services for the American people. Make your voice heard! Click here (https://p2a.co/cHnV1IV) to contact your representatives in Congress now and urge them to prioritize telehealth in any funding package. Your opinion matters! #savetelehealth U.S. House of Representatives United States Senate House Republican Conference
