Scaling Telehealth and Other Emerging Technologies to Mitigate the Health Care Workforce Crisis

The U.S. health care system is facing a severe and worsening workforce crisis, characterized by a shortage of providers, geographic maldistribution of providers, and record levels of burnout.

Telehealth is a promising solution to mitigate these issues. However, many telehealth programs are sub-scale due to limited coverage and reimbursement, insufficiently robust evidence, cultural barriers around adopting new technology and other factors.

Join us for a live, interactive, webinar where we will discuss how telehealth can alleviate the workforce crisis and what health systems can do now to prepare.

Key topics include:

  • Framework for considering how digital health can alleviate health care workforce challenges
  • Adopting AI to enhance telehealth workflows and reduce burnout
  • Broader policy and industry changes are needed to attract, optimize, and retain health care professionals
  • Other findings from the white paper on telehealth and the workforce authored by Manatt Health with the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC)
